Welcome to Next Wave Success™ Consulting - Est. 2004
Steven has been an entrepreneur and innovator for four decades. He has launched businesses, built multiple brands and intellectual property portfolios, developed educational programs, created certifications, cultivated strategic partnerships, and established trust, credibility and authority, while helping to shape emerging markets.
At the forefront of the aging-at-home movement since 2011 during one of the largest demographic transformations in American history. For 15 years, Steven worked alongside entrepreneurs, healthcare professionals, Fortune 100 companies, national associations, governmental agencies, nonprofits, thought leaders, and innovators, seeking to address one of society's most important challenges; to improve the experience of aging at home.
As founder of Age Safe® America in 2015, Steven built the brand from conception to international leader, recognized today as one of the primary foundational pillars of the Aging-in-Place sector. He was fiercely committed to the brand's credibility, trust, authority, and IP status. Dedicated to advancing successful aging at home, he helped shape industry standards through professional certification, consumer education, and advocacy.
A successful exit in 2025 left Age Safe® America in the very capable hands of a former tech founder and global CEO from Silicon Valley, committed to helping families Age Safe® Live Well. Steven continues to advise and collaborate with the team.
Over the years Steven didn't just build businesses, he built categories, brands, authority, trust and industry standards. Those experiences have given him the framework to help organizations understand how older adults, caregivers, and family decision-makers think, adopt and engage aging services while navigating meaningful life transitions. Today, he advises national brands, creating solutions that help people and organizations to thrive.
Favorite Quote: "We are limited, not by our abilities, but by our vision."-Kahlil Gibran
"I believe change happens when vision, passion, trust and consistency all come together. I've read, and know to be true, what we fail to conceptualize we can never attempt to build or achieve. Yet, when we expand what we believe we can reach, our vision, focus, and energy will naturally rise to achieve those goals." -Steven
