Joseph developed his career as an artist at a young age. Through high school, he worked as a street artist and freelancer in the city of New Orleans. Joseph served in the US Army for eight years. During his time of service, leadership qualities and teamwork ethics were driven into the moral fiber of Joseph's being solidifying his personality. Joseph also worked as a techno-music producer and dj while maintaining his presence as an artist. As the styles of music changed, so did Joseph's artistic mediums. Joseph extended his media choices from only pen and paints to building relief sculptures and adding in etched glass.

     Joseph's time in the military ended with an Honorable Discharge, and a fresh view of the world. He attended college at Spencerian College ( a Division of Sullivan University ) where he developed a new love working in 3D. He then furthered his understanding of this frontier by attending Savannah College of Art and Design. While at SCAD, Joseph teamed up with Brandon Dunaway and developed new ideas using Houdini. The two used a system of bones to develop a character animation sequence that was then used to populate a particle system and interact with itself. This partnership was the beginning of much more to come.

     After college, Joseph decided to move to New Orleans. He co-founded Lucid SFX Development with his wife Nesrin. Their company began doing commercials and design work for some of the local advertising companies while breaking into the marketplace. Nine months into the business LSD worked on their first Feature Film, opening the doorway for many more to come. Using these ventures, Joseph developed a Convention-styled Festival to bring his community into the larger world of film. Thus Joseph spread FEAR across New Orleans. This groundbreaking festival linked the worlds of Special Effects with Visual Effects and Sound Effects. His tireless efforts continue to develop the best visual and sound experience he can for an audience.
