When Stephen said "I will be your advisor" I felt extremely lucky to have access to his vast knowledge for startups
He understood my situation based on very little explanation.
Stephen is personable, knowledgeable, responsive, diligent, relentless and incredibly helpful.
I give my highest reccomendation to Stephen and I am very happy to have him as my advisor for the msPad.
Stephen is a motivated professional with very high ethical standards who strives to give his best at everything he does. He is responsible, reliable, efficient, knowledgeable and a joy to work with. I highly recommend him.

Source: LinkedIn Chad Penry Jan 28, 2014Stephen and I buckled down to secure a win for our team at Startup Weekend Phoenix. He was a great startup advisor and mentor during the weekend and I'd love to work with him again.
Source: LinkedIn Will Bradley Mar 10, 2013Steve is a great source of both new ideas and nuances within the networking world. Whenever I think of new projects, I read Steve's recommendations before ever considering the idea.
Source: LinkedIn Rabbi Alan Abrams Mar 10, 2013Stephen is an always motivated person with excellent skills on internet marketing and social networking. Every time i had to share knowledge with him i got useful ideas for my daily work. It was really nice to work with him.
Source: LinkedIn Omar Gomez Mar 10, 2013Stephen Barr is a very savvy leader in the social media world. I had the good fortune of meeting Stephen through the Center for Progressive Leadership Fellowship Program, where I served as his faculty coach. Stephen is a dedicated community leader and has worked with several noteworthy clients. I highly recommend him for your consideration.
Source: LinkedIn Andrew Ortiz Mar 10, 2013I've known Steve Barr since the inception of Vintage Bass and the newsgroup that he started, and as a performer with 35 years of experience it was evident early on that Steve was on top of the game. He brought together a whole community and I was touched by many unselfish acts of kindness that he performed, in getting folks in the group to contribute to those in medical need or serving overseas in Iraq. There was nothing in it for him except to "do the right thing", and this is a quality that is all so rare in these days of the bottom line mentality
I find it a positive experience that he has crossed paths with one of the outstanding computer managers here at the Univ of AZ that works with me in my department, small world indeed!!
