Steve Stephens II

About Steve Stephens II

My name is Steve and I am an early 30s family man from (you guessed it!) Tulsa, Oklahoma currently residing in a major metropolitan city on the east coast. I was born in Tulsa and lived there most of my early life then I moved to several cities in the south and mid-west and moved to the east coast after finishing undergrad. Moving around gave me an early view on different cities, regional cultures, styles, and taste that has always stuck with me and to this day I always notice the differences both major and subtle when I travel.

I am truly excited to share my loves, dislikes, passions, memories, accomplishments, failures, and life with you. Look for my weekly updates and if you enjoy please tell others and drop me a line with some feedback.
