Steve’s Professional Journey – A Brief History:
Steve has worked in the area of high-tech media and web technologies for over 20 years.
He created his first website in 1995, complete with multi-media and video presentations at a time when motion video on a webpage was something previously unheard of, and a brand-new experience.
As a result of this success and other related projects, he launched Interjize, Inc., an internet marketing and website development company in 1998. Soon the company grew, serving local area businesses as well as businesses nationwide – providing online website presence, specialized functionality, and online advertising.
Five years later, and after the death of his father, Steve sold Interjize and went onto pursue other interests of giving back to the community. While his company was a success, he still felt something was missing. As a result, he decided to do volunteer work at non-profits devoted to helping others and helping the community through charitable works.
Driven by a desire to make a meaningful impact, he started a 501c(3) non-profit organization devoted to helping the environment, Enviro-Eye, founded in 2006, educating adults and students of the importance of recycling, land stewardship, and resource management.
Steve has also served on boards in various advisory capacities. Notably, he has chaired committees for non-profit healthcare organizations dedicated to serving the poor and vulnerable populations. These boards and committees included Environmental Stewardship Committees, LEED Certifications, Employee Wellness, and Mission and Diversity related programs. Additionally, Steve has played a pivotal role in guiding initiatives such as the Connected Member Experience, leveraging his strategic insights to enhance community engagement and support.
Steve works with groups and programs for bringing mindfulness to people of all ages, including those at the workplace by creating engaging activities that help the whole person; mind, body, and spirit.
Even the name Zareco, also has a mission of it’s own, which the very word, Zareco, stands for “Dawn of a new Ecology” or “Dawn to a new way of thinking…” Which Steve attributes for creativity, thinking outside the box, and constantly improving.
