Joe has been involved in the education of deaf children for over 40 years...having served as a dorm counselor, classroom teacher, supervisor, principal and CEO of two special schools for the deaf. He is a graduate of the Leadership Training Program (LTP) at CSUN and had the opportunity to be mentored by some of the giants in our profession.

He and his wife Margaret, who is the coordinator of the deaf ed teacher training program at Flagler College, live in St. Augustine, FL. They have two adopted children, one of whom, Elizabeth, is deaf.

Relationship building is one of Joe's passions, both as an administrator of a special school and as a business man in St. Augustine.
