Joe was born three months premature and was given only a two-percent chance of living. Miraculously, he beat the odds and survived. While in the hospital, his eyes weren't protected from the harsh hospital lighting, which left him blind. Joe is incredibly close to his grandfather, who taught him how to play guitar by putting it on his lap. He is now known all over town as Blind Joe and performs with his wife. He doesn't let his unique circumstances get in the way of anything else he wants to accomplish. He loves dirt biking and working with other people with disabilities, teaching technology.
