ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Joseph!
I was born and raised in the Southwest Suburbs of Chicago and graduated Cum Laude at Illinois Wesleyan University with a BFA in Music Theatre. I've loved theatre my whole life, but I didn't get my first shot to perform until high school. Although I was a "late bloomer," it's been nothing but fun and growth from there!
​​
I'm also an avid musician, director, designer, and writer. I can confidently play six instruments (8 if you count my tinkering on guitar and ukelele), and I've been a jack-of-all-trades ever since graduating from undergrad in May 2022. I'm constantly juggling multiple projects including musicals, designs, screenplays, songs, and stage plays.
​​
Additionally, I love the outdoors, LEGO, sports (especially baseball), my family, my dog Lucy, and board games.
​
Although my theatrical career is still very young, I know this is where I'm meant to be.
