As an alumnus of Cypress Trails Elementary School and Royal Palm Beach High School, Steve stands as a shining example of the village’s educational prowess. His personal success story is a testament to the schools’ ability to nurture promising students into accomplished individuals. Eager to promote the local schools, Steve aims to attract young families who are looking to plant roots and pursue their own version of the American dream.

This initiative is critical for several reasons. Highlighting the academic excellence within the village not only serves as a beacon for new families but also stimulates community growth. A community with a reputation for strong schools becomes a magnet for economic activity, as families contribute to the local economy, supporting businesses and spurring job creation.

Moreover, Steve is passionate about reversing the “brain drain” — the trend of the students leaving to attend schools elsewhere — believing that retaining local talent is essential for the village’s prosperity. Students who remain are likely to apply their skills and creativity back into the local environment, enriching the village that fostered their development.

Steve’s advocacy for the village’s schools is a strategic endeavor to cultivate a robust, interconnected community that retains and attracts the bright minds that will lead it into the future.

Steve is committed to challenging the status quo of uncontested elections and the absence of term limits, bringing new perspectives to the Village Council and modernizing Royal Palm Beach’s governance with his energy, cultural competency, and established relationships.
