Joe recently graduated from the University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts with a degree in Cinema & Media Studies, which means he now gets to call watching movies professional research. 

During his time at USC, he worked development and production at various companies such as 87North and Color Force, where he mastered the important industry skills of note-taking, coffee acquisition, and pretending not to panic on group emails. 

Joe is drawn to propulsive, character-driven stories with a strong sense of voice, particularly in action, comedy, and thrillers. Outside of film, Joe enjoys dogs and pretending he is “between projects” instead of unemployed after graduation.
