Mr. Storvik received a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Milwaukee School of Engineering in 2008 and a Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Marquette University in 2011. At Marquette Steve specialized in injury biomechanics and held a joint research engineer position in the Department of Neurosurgery at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW).

At MCW Steve worked in the full-scale vehicle crash lab and assessed injury risk in rear-end impacts by conducting sled tests using instrumented Hybrid III and THOR dummies, and designed an experimental model to assess aircraft ejection seat injury dynamics utilizing human cadaveric spines and a drop tower.

Steve has authored and co-authored scientific papers on topics involving spine injury biomechanics, vehicle crashworthiness, epidemiology of automotive injuries, and forensic case studies of fatal rollover crashes including publications in the American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, and Traffic Injury Prevention.

Steve has been with VSI since 2011 had has conducted more than a thousand injury biomechanics analyses of motor vehicle crashes including several hundred high-speed rollover accidents. His work incorporates occupant dynamics and injury mechanics analyses as well as applying injury data from NASS-CDS and CISS to establish relationships between types and severities of collisions, restraint system performance, and specific injuries.
