Joseph graduated from New Mexico State University in 1995, with a BA in Finance. After graduating, he took a year for himself and moved to South Korea where he taught English as a second language. Upon returning to the States, he began an accomplished career as a Jr. Trader with PaineWebber, where he passed the series 9 & 10 exams and was eventually promoted to Operations Manager for the firm's Santa Fe branch. Joseph continued his success in management when he joined Smith Barney in 2003, as the Operations Manager of the Albuquerque branch. Thereafter, he joined the Cates Team at RBC Wealth Management in 2009, where he currently serves as a Financial Advisor as well as Branch Director of the Albuquerque office.

Joseph is a proud and active member of his community and enjoys dedicating his time to the Kiwanis Club of Corrales, where he currently serves as a member of the board and is chair to the annual Corrida de Corrales 5K & 10K run fundraiser which benefits Kamp Kawanis, an annual camp for at-risk kids where Joe also takes an active role.

Outside of the office, Joseph enjoys hiking, travel adventures, and spending time at the family cabin in northern NM. Most of all, he loves spending time with his son Archer.
