Steven has a Master's degree in Economics and an undergraduate degree in Business Economics and Quantitative Methods. I am currently retired, but my professional career has covered a vast number of areas including teaching economics and statistics, economic research in such areas as geothermal energy production, water resources, and real estate development. In addition, I have engaged in numerous research in areas of financial and market analyses, some of which was within the nonprofit sector. These experiences have provided me with a broad perspective in researching topics.
