Hij is geboren in het dorpje Asch in de Betuwe, met ongeveer 300 inwoners. Vanaf 1991 woonde hij zeven jaar in Amsterdam.<br><br>Steven is afgestudeerd in de energietechniek en was jarenlang werkzaam bij Eaton (voorheen Holec) in Amersfoort en Hengelo. De laatste jaren was hij als projectmanager verantwoordelijk voor het onderhoud en de verbetering van hoogspanningsinstallaties bij netbeheerders.<br><br>Sinds 2022 is hij met pensioen en zet hij zich als vrijwilliger in bij de Buurtbus Oldenzaal\u2013De Lutte en ANWB Automaatje. Na zijn jarenlange inzet als politiek secretaris bij de D66-afdeling Noordoost Twente, is Steven tegenwoordig in diverse rollen actief binnen de Oldenzaalse gemeenteraad. \u2018Ik kies voor D66, omdat het sociaalliberalisme zoals deze partij dat uitdraagt mij het meeste aanspreekt. Uitgaan van de eigen kracht en mogelijkheden van iedereen, maar zorgen voor een vangnet als het echt misgaat.\u2019<br><br>In de afgelopen jaren heeft Steven zich, met wisselend succes, ingezet voor het maximaal betrekken van inwoners bij diverse projecten. \u2018Ik wens de Oldenzaalse inwoners de komende vier jaar een mooie en gezellige stad toe. Bovenal een veilige stad, met minimale armoede en een gemeentebestuur dat in staat is inwoners vroegtijdig en onbevooroordeeld te betrekken bij ingrijpende veranderingen. Aan mij zal het niet liggen.\u2019\t<\/p>\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":2010,"featured_media":2350,"menu_order":0,"template":"","labels":[],"search-tags":[],"division-tags":[43,28,44,39,47],"class_list":["post-2348","people-type","type-people-type","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","division-tags-forumleden","division-tags-fractie","division-tags-gemeentecoordinator","division-tags-kandidaat-raadsleden-2026-2030","division-tags-lijsttrekker"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>D66 Oldenzaal &#8212;
