Joshua is a designer who believes in being thoughtful and meticulous when crafting his work. But most of all, he cares about allowing his team to grow their skills through informed critiques and feel heard and cared for in a positive team culture.
Joshua was born in the midwest but has lived in quite a few places around the U.S including Iowa Falls, Iowa; Austin, Texas; Orlando, Florida; Detroit, Michigan, and finally; Portland, Oregon. These places each taught him life lessons and perspectives that influence him to this day.
An introvert, or virtuoso (ISTP) by birth, Joshua easily navigates the extrovert world. He loves asking, "why?" and playing devil's advocate. Having a deep conversation is valued over small talk. He does not take himself too seriously and thinks that egos can take a hike. Joshua's stance is that we can all learn from each other.
Always remembering to have fun in life is important. Joshua's only real vice is Minnesota Vikings football. Skol Vikes! He love's staying active through sports and hiking. When not on the PNW running trails, you can find Joshua at a water park or going on ghost hunting excursions. He has plenty of creepy tales to tell.
