I had a chance to meet Steven at the Colorado ASTA Conference this summer. He is a very interesting composer and teacher who currently serves as an Adjunct Assistant Professor at New York University.

In this podcast, Steven and I have a conversation about some of the following topics:

- Why writing the ending (and beginning) of a song is difficult

- Why he wishes he would have earned his doctorate sooner

- The importance of the 31st Proverb in a marriage (and in composition)

- Why "waiting to be inspired" is a myth

- AND MORE
