Biography

Joe has been a counselor since 2005. Having worked at 69ÂÜÀò, Mission College, San Jose State University, and Stanford University he brings a diverse understanding of higher education to his role.

He has spent a majority of his career focusing on the needs of first-generation college students while teaching and counseling.
