Background

🧀 Hi!

My name is Joey. I’ve gone back and forth on Josef or Joe but it always comes back to Joey. I hail from the America’s Dairyland State of Wisconsin, where I enjoy spending time gardening, chicken-wrangling, golfing (a lot), baking naturally-leavened breads, and playing with our ever-growing assortment of pets. And, yes, tipping back a beer or three. I live here in Milwaukee with my fiancée, Nikki.

I studied Computer Science and Theatre at the University of Puget Sound, in Tacoma, Washington. There, I benefitted greatly from the liberal arts philosophy of higher education, taking courses across both majors and in subject matter altogether outside of both. In that context, I learned adaptability and how to approach problem-solving from a variety of perspectives.

Before joining Fay as engineer #3, I had founded and worked for, respectively, two seed-stage startups. Before that, I worked at Amazon.com on the Cloud Drive and AWS WorkSpaces teams. I’ve built anything and everything up and down the stack, and the thing that has stuck with me the most is ensuring a user has the best experience possible.
