Owner of Cruise Brothers and visionary of the host agency model. Steve and his brother Russell took over their father's travel business Anywhere, Inc. in 1981 after realizing the potential not only in selling cruises, but also how he could turn his passion for cruising into teaching others how to cruise for free by becoming travel agents in their part time. During his time at University of Miami he had the opportunity to take a semester at sea traveling the world. That experience plus multiple conversations with industry executives gave him the drive he needed to create one of the most successful cruise agencies in the country.
