Joe has been a vocalist for 30 years, turned actor, then screenwriter and small indie producer who has tried as much as possible, to be a part of an entertainment industry that has multi facets which are critical for one specific area, creating films. His writing skills go back to high school but learning script structure was his latest venture which he gladly added to his repertoire!
Joe has also been a successful small business owner since 1996.
His vocal abilities as an entertainer have been on stage locally in the tri-state area, some of which he produced. During one of Joe's musical shows, his talent was noticed by several actors and producers in Philadelphia that started Joe on an additional career path. Joe later got to contribute writing dialogue for several projects that he was part of as an actor which flared up his earlier writing interests going back to high school.
With the passing of Joe's mother from a brain tumor, he was inspired to write a screenplay about her death, but felt it needed a supernatural, beyond the grave twist which gave the script a different kind of ghost story.
After binge watching Netflix in 2020, Joe got further inspiration while watching a Turkish Netflix series called, Black Money Love. So, with that, the rewriting began, and more rewriting and when he finished, more rewriting!
It's been a never-ending, relentless rewriting journey which Joe realizes is probably not over yet, so he looks forward to letting the rewriting journey continue!
