Steven Zoernack is a veteran dealmaker and strategic entrepreneur with offices in both New York City’s World Trade Center and on Main Street in Sarasota, Florida. He splits his time between the two locations but prioritizes Sarasota, where he spends as much time as possible with his family and three children. Known for his no-nonsense execution and creative structuring, Steven has led and advised on billions in capital deployment and structured finance transactions over a four-decade career that began on Wall Street in the mid-1980s. He started with Bear Stearns at the iconic 55 Water Street headquarters, quickly developing a reputation for closing complex deals that others could not.
Steven is Managing Director at CapitalBoss, a boutique commercial real estate finance firm and conduit lender based in New York City. CapitalBoss specializes in large-balance transactions of $10 million and above, providing strategic financing solutions for borrowers across the country. From bridge loans and ground-up construction to stabilized debt and SBA-takeout structures, Steven and his team are known for crafting innovative, customized lending packages that solve real-world borrower challenges. His approach is results-driven and deeply rooted in real estate fundamentals, investor psychology, and pragmatic deal engineering.
Beyond real estate, Steven is also the founder of a leading peptide and wellness company focused on research-backed therapies, NAD+ optimization, and regenerative health. The brand caters to a health-conscious audience seeking advanced formulations to support longevity, recovery, and peak performance. With a strong emphasis on third-party testing, purity standards, and regulatory compliance, it has become one of the most trusted names in the peptide space. Steven’s own journey with immune dysregulation inspired a deep commitment to integrative health solutions, and he has since become a vocal advocate for education around peptide science, epigenetics, and next-generation wellness strategies.
In parallel with his real estate and health ventures, Steven Zoernack also runs a specialized online reputation management and public relations agency. This firm focuses on Wikipedia page creation, knowledge panel development, and digital narrative control for CEOs, public figures, and private companies. With a reputation for serving some of the most notable clients in the world—as well as helping lesser-known individuals achieve notability—Steven and his team stay with each Wikipedia project for up to two years, ensuring longevity, visibility, and adherence to editorial standards. He is regarded as one of the most effective consultants in this space, with a near-perfect track record of Wikipedia approval and retention.
Recently, Steven launched a sustainability initiative under Alliance Real Estate Partners, where he is leading the conversion of underutilized or dying citrus groves across Florida into thriving bamboo plantations. Recognizing bamboo’s potential as a green, fast-growing, and profitable crop, Steven is working with landowners and investors to replace water-intensive and pest-prone citrus operations with sustainable bamboo cultivation. Bamboo is termite-resistant, rot-proof, and can be engineered to replace traditional lumber such as 2x4s, plywood, and even flooring—all at a lower environmental cost and greater scalability. His initiative supports Florida’s push toward agricultural innovation, reforestation alternatives, and climate-friendly investment opportunities.
Steven Zoernack is an execution-oriented leader who blends Wall Street sophistication with real-world problem solving. He is passionate about his family, dedicated to his clients, and always in pursuit of the next smart solution—whether in finance, wellness, digital strategy, or sustainability.
