Bio

Founder & CEO: The Familie, A Sports, Music, Art & Media Agency.

1998 - 2003: Founder, CEO & Agent, The Familie


In 2019, Astephen left a position as managing partner of Wasserman, a top global sports and entertainment agency with 1100 employees and 1500 athletes, because those street kid’s instincts are telling him that the game is about to change once again. He’s queuing up The Familie - a rebrand of his very first agency - with top talent from the NFL, NBA, golf, music, action sports, art, media and a division dedicated to women. His first music client, Machine Gun Kelly, currently sits at #1 with Ticket To My Downfall, effectively positioning him as the biggest rock star on the planet. Astephen’s simultaneous launch of brand incubator, Unlisted / Brand Lab - helmed by employee #1 from his first agency, Candy Harris - will model the formula he ran at Wasserman nearly a dozen times, most famously with Art of Sport and Stance, where he played a pivotal role from Day #1 in successfully architecting the modern athlete-equity business model.

“When it comes to agents, no one comes close to possessing Steve’s level of vision and creativity. He always goes so far above and beyond for his clients, using his connections in sports, arts and music to build transformational platforms. His true differentiator though: he legitimately cares. Something you don’t experience often, in what can be a cutthroat business.” - Matt McGlynn VP Brand RBC
