Growing up in South East Kentucky, deep in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, Joseph always dreamed big, and visioned himself with monumental goals, facing insurmountable odds and living in fear of "what next?" Despite all these obstacles, Joseph found success in church, ministry, Blue Man Group, graphic design, television and radio broadcasting. For 2 years, Joseph and his wife toured the nation with Blue Man Group, and lived life on the road and in the air. People will become inspired to once again find true joy, to cherish every moment, value relationships, dream big and commit to make impact on those around them, especially in their local communities.
Joseph delivers an engaging speech of encouragement pulling from his many years in broadcast media and motivational speaking in the ministry and for hemophilia awareness campaigns. With the future release of Joseph's upcoming book "I Strive To Thrive," even more emphasis will be driven toward the power of testimony. "It's not our life, or our testimony... It's God's!"
