Joel is currently a resident performer at The Annoyance Theatre and Bar, a tour guide for the Wendella Boats Architecture Tour, and a Musical Instrument Technician and Front of House Staffer for Blue Man Group Chicago.

Joel likes to focus his work on a strong sense of community, pulling influence from the art that affected him as a child - particularly in the music and comedy intersection. Writing in the third person has never been his strong suit, and I want to he wants to take this last section to thank the people in his life for helping him get here, particularly his parents, teachers, professors, mentors, and friends - he loves all of you. He also thanks you for the privilege of your time and attention. It’s nice to meet you.
