As a young child, Steele was described as perpetually hyperactive and adventurous. Growing up, he had no real career dream or direction for himself. But at the age of 24, moved to Los Angeles which proved to be a defining moment of his life. He first found employment at Universal Studios Theme Park working as Frankenstein's monster, but soon found himself in an on-screen role due to his towering stature. Steele has participated in multiple ultra-distance, self-supported cycling races, including the Tour Divide mountain bike race and the Trans Am Bike Race. He was featured in the 2014 documentary "Inspired to Ride".
