Employment History:
Steve has dedicated his entire professional career building Princeton Consultants, a firm with a 25 year track record applying a unique fusion of Information Technology and Management Consulting for many of the world's most successful and innovative companies. Princeton Consultants is known for its application of Game Theory and Optimization technologies to business problems ranging from asset scheduling to pricing to organizational structure/workflow. It integrates four core services:
Strategy, Business Process Improvement, Software Development, and Project Management. The Wall Street Journal has called the firm's work "revolutionary." In the last 4 years, Consulting Magazine has twice featured Princeton Consultants, extolling its "broad thinkers" and notes "when consulting firms say they hire only the best and the brightest, they are usually engaging in a bit of hyperbole. Not so at Princeton Consultants."
