Steven Cuoco is a public relations and media mogul and an entrepreneur unlike any other. However, his life could have turned out very differently. He was saved from an abusive family at a young age by his adoptive parents who brought him up and helped change his future.
“I grew up in an abusive home with family members who struggled with drug and alcohol addiction in Phillipsburg, New Jersey. There were many times when I had no idea when my next meal would be. My beatings were planned and timed according to the moment when my step dad wanted to make the point that he was in control, or when he was bored or under the influence of a substance. Due to a phone call made by a family member to The Division of Child Protection is when they removed me from my home and placed me with my foster parents, David and Madie Everitt. I was removed from my biological family December 26th, 1981. My parents, David and Madie Everitt adopted me in 1983 in March. I am where I am because of my parents faith, love and strength,” Steven explains.
This started Steven’s life on a successful path. He began to show an interest in business and public relations at a young age. He never wanted to be tied down to a desk or committed to doing a lot of paperwork. He found public relations to be the secret to success in finding happiness and financial freedom.
“I started in public relations for a video production company at the age of 18. I wanted to be a prosecutor for the State of New Jersey and practice Law, however, I didn’t want to be tied to a desk, paper work, and live in a courtroom when I knew that being hands on, and having the ability to travel and be a consultant throughout and representing various markets, businesses and predicting future trends, is where I knew I would be more of an asset. I was motivated to start my company United Angels Dream (Public Relations Firm) by the ability to help people to know the truth, understand the truth, and how to easily implement strategy and integrity through their mission statement, passion and business practices. It is rewarding when I assess a situation, business function, and to be able to understand about that person before they share with me about their journey and what their goals are, ” Steven recounts.
Now, Steven is shaping the public relations world for the better. He harnessed the power of satellite radio to expand and recreate the way public relations is thought of.
“United Angels Dream (CEO & Founder Steven Cuoco) is the first public relations firm to launch a satellite radio station that’s syndicated. With the purpose to change the way music artists and their music is heard, and to do business and collaboration in a way that goes against the scheme of the pay-per-play that oftentimes happens in the music industry. This sort of business practice takes away from the quality and integrity of music support, music placement, recognition and ethical business dealings. My goal is to help music artists to be able to be recognized for their hard work, to better understand their narrative and give their fans the opportunity to choose for themselves how they see, hear, and embrace different styles of music,” Steven states.
In addition to his own business, Steven is also widely sought after for his advice and expertise in the industry. The way that he does public relations has garnered attention from corporate businesses, authors, celebrities, musicians, and top athletes from all across the globe. This also has given Steven the opportunity to interview actor and Crystal Head Vodka Founder Dan Aykroyd to be a guest on his radio show Live On Air with Steven Cuoco, on Power 98.5, on Thursday October 8, at 10 am EST.

What’s more, Steven is a sought-after positioning expert for corporate companies and businesses who are looking to attract and build relationships with Millennials and emerging generations. Steven knows what emerging generations are seeking when they are inspired to spend, perform, and maintain long term loyalty.
“I can identify missed opportunities and design and implement strategic systems for incorporating new revenue streams and profit in current and emerging markets. The areas of expertise include corporate operations and deliverables, entrepreneurship, event planning and producing, book publishing, entertainment, music and talent representation and development. The most valuable asset professionals and businesses hire me for is to determine foreseeable outcomes no matter what business or areas of development it may be.” Steven expressed.
Steven’s advice for those getting started in the world of entrepreneurship is to have the right mindset and to know that you don’t need a lot of money to start off with, but despite all of that, your hard work and dedication will pay off in the end.
“You don’t have to have a lot of money to start out. I always recommend beginning by having an LLC, and it’s very inexpensive to acquire. You can go to a local community college and someone there will help you out for free to set it up. I paid $75.00 when I started my LLC for my company United Angels Dream,” Steven advises.
