“In my band, PAX, I play the keyboard and sing back-up vocals”, he explained. “Being a part of a band allows me to tap into my creative side. I really enjoy being in a band with my friends.”
Steven draws his musical inspirtation from Daft Punk, which is an electronic music duo consisting of French musicians Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter. They are known for not showing their faces as well as for wearing robot costumes in public.
“After high school I’m considering a career in audio production. I’d like to work in the music or movie industry.”
As far as college goes Steven would like to attend San Fransisco State, which makes sense because San Fransisco is his favorite city. Additionally, San Fransisco has a vibrant music and art community, which is important to Steven.
When talking about why he would like to go to college in San Fransisco, Steven said, “New York to me is dark and gloomy, while San Fransisco is more colorful and vibrant. San Fransisco is my favorite place to be.”
