Joe grew up in South Dakota, where his family was heavily involved in the Sioux Falls media industry. He attended the University of Northwestern, St. Paul, majoring in Electronic Media with an emphasis in Audio Production and minoring in Biblical Studies. While in college, he also played baseball and served as a guitarist on several campus worship teams. Clearly, sitting still has never been his thing!
Joe’s radio career has taken him through Sioux Falls, Fargo, Orlando, and Kansas City before bringing him to Columbus, where he’s proud to be part of The River. Outside the studio, Joe is passionate about sports, music, and spending time with his wife, Kierstin, and their two dogs, Zoey and Winston. He’s also a lifelong baseball fan and a proud Philadelphia Phillies supporter who recently checked a major goal off his bucket list: attending a game at all 30 Major League Baseball stadiums!
