Steve formed and started Shoreline Design in 2000, with a focus on residential design.  Collaboration on a series of projects with Mike Pattullo led to a partnership and the inception of Shoreline Architecture & Design.  He is an avid golfer, boater, and skier, taking advantage of the splendor that Northern Michigan has to offer.  Steve’s real passion is his family:  his wife Jody and twin daughters, Brynn & Riley.  The girls think it’s the greatest that their dad gets to draw pictures for a job,  You know what, he couldn’t agree more.
