Steve joined the NCC staff in 2017 and for a short time had the fringe benefit of working at the same place as his two daughters, Bethany Strumpell and Tiffany Dukes, before they moved on to other adventures. Although he no longer sees them every day at work, hanging out with them and their families is still one of the best things in his life.

Steve grew up in New Holland, PA, and loves to return to visit family amidst the picturesque farmland there. He likes rooting for Pennsylvania teams particularly the Phillies, Eagles, Sixers and Steelers. Before joining the NCC Finance team Steve taught high school math for 26 years including 6 in Hong Kong and 18 in Clinton, MD. He now lives in a condo very near the Mount Vernon bike path in Alexandria, VA. Biking and running and walking on that trail are some of his favorite activities.
