Joel isn’t just a marketing specialist; he’s all-around special. As a self-proclaimed word Czar (Tsar? whatever), he spends his days crafting copy for marketing campaigns, building web content, and obsessively nerding out over SEO numbers. When he’s not hard at work, Joel likes to relax by taking in a White Sox game, cozying up with a Gilmore Girls rerun, or angering his neighbors via the two metal bands he fronts. No, YOU turn it down!

Joel attended the University of Iowa, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in English before earning a Master’s degree in written communications from National Louis University. Since decorating his ego with degrees, Joel has used his skills to create compelling content for companies big and small, all while learning the 3R’s: Rib Rub Recipes.
