Contents
Early Life
Joe was born on October 26, 2001, in Manhattan, New York, and lived in Brooklyn before moving to Mount Olive, New Jersey at the age of 5. He began playing the trumpet in fourth grade, which he continues to do excluding a brief hiatus between late 2019 and 2021. In the summer of 2018, he founded Keysmash Productions (now Trevolte Studios), a small game development startup. In the summer of 2019, he enrolled in Harvard University's summer school program. During his senior year of high school in 2019-2020, he set a record in his high school for the number of AP tests taken and passed by a single student in one year (7) and across high school (11).
Academics at RIT
Joe applied to RIT as a biochemistry major in hopes of pursuing a career in medicine but changed it before enrollment to accounting to better match his skillset before finally settling on finance. With his AP credit earned from his time in high school plus his time at Harvard, he enrolled in RIT as a third year. He is expected to graduate in May of 2022 with a B.S. in Business Administration - Finance.
Involvement with Phi Sigma Pi
Recruitment and the Initiate Process
Joe decided to rush in his second year after seeing the words "National" and "Honor" in the name of the fraternity. After being extended a bid to rush, he joined the Alpha Psi Class under Initiate Advisor Keegan Kresge alongside fellow initiates Joey Hommel and Will Hostetter with brother Cole Glasgow as his Big. It took Joe a while to find his footing within the chapter, spending most of his time sitting silently in the corner. This slightly changed during the mock elections for Fraternal Taco Chef, which Joe won (and continues to wear as a badge of honor), but it still took him some time to truly open up to the chapter.
