Joe was born in New York City in the summer of '86 with an NES controller in his hand, something that alarmed everyone at the hospital because it wasn't attached to anything. A band of scientists researched the young lad and came to the universal conclusion that he was born to make 'video games'.

Joe decided to pursue his scientist-backed dream of becoming a game designer and now he does just that, having been in the professional industry for approximately 4 years to date. He is currently employed as a Game Producer, Designer, and Audio director at a large online game development company in Manhattan, where he has helped produce and design over 60 different titles for both clients and gamers alike. He has even won a couple of awards and given some interviews along the way.

Outside of video games, Joe enjoys music, movies, laying in bed and reading books, tea, marine biology, Central Park, puppies, politics, and being a Space Doctor.

Some of the people he looks up to include Shigeru Miyamoto, Hunter S. Thompson, Jacques Cousteau, Steve Zissou, Hideo Kojima, John Lennon, Wes Anderson, and his parents.
