Joe, a sketch comedian and stage actor turned writer and director, hails from the city that never sleeps, New York. His academic background is rooted in the esteemed theater program at Skidmore College, where he honed his craft.
Notably, Joe has garnered numerous accolades for his work in the film industry. At the Accord Cine Fest 2020, he took home the award for "Best Writer" for his noir suspense-thriller, "Death Sentences". The Sydney Indie Film Festival 2019 also recognized his talent, presenting him with the "Best Screenplay" award for his caustic comedy, "Meant to Be Broken".
Furthermore, Joe's script for the wryly cerebral fantasy, "Death of a Fool", earned him the distinction of "Best Feature Script" at the BlueCat Screenplay Competition 2018. His script, "Half Sisters", was produced in 2022 and has since received a theatrical release.
In addition to his writing credits, Joe has also ventured into directing, helming projects such as "Breakup Mountain", which won the "Best Twist" award at the Top Indie Film Awards. His other directing credits include "Reap", "Blood Falls", and the "Parched" trilogy, all of which were produced by Parched Productions, a talented and perpetually thirsty crew.
