He attended West Hills Community College before transferring to San Jose State University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in photography, while also heavily involved in the journalism department.

From there, Joe ventured to New York City where he earned a master’s degree in digital media journalism from the Graduate School of Journalism at Columbia University.
