Biography of Joe Wolfe
Hello my name is Joseph Wolfe. I was born in Lima, Ohio in 1984. At the moment I am residing in Chandler, AZ working as a web designer.
My passions in my life stem from various things. First and foremost I have a natural inclination towards computer and technology. I have had this inclination since I was a young boy. To my earliest memories it all started with my father buying an Atari 2600 for my brother and me. My addictions to video games began my thirst for technology and eventually lead me to computers. The trend in technology is that video games tend to bring out the most powerful technology available on the market. I think because of that I’ve always been on top of the technology game. I went through my high school years actively learning computer technology so that one day I may pursue a dream of becoming a video game designer. However that would change in the years to come.
My freshman year of college at the University of Toledo in Toledo, I came to terms with my next passion, music. While in Toledo I learned a lot about myself including who I am and my passions in life. Toledo was my first year living on my own and having so much spare time lead me to look up new bands to feed my starving ears. I knew then I’d want to do something with music in my future if the video game route never fell through. I met a lot of music enthusiast while in Toledo and began to make ties with them. Everyone would swap band names and from this I had a good source of information of the latest and greatest bands hitting the scene.
My second year of college I ventured back at home and went to a local college titled Rhodes State University. I backed away from Toledo because of family issues and having a push to help my family out in their time of need. Rhodes State College provided me with little experience that I would use over the year, but being back home lead me to something greater than I ever could have imagined…love. I fell in love for the first time and it broke me away from my chains of disbelief and self doubt. It made me realize how beautiful things could be. I stayed in Ohio that year but it ended because I needed to follow my life’s ambition and move to Arizona to pursue a dream.
Arizona brought out more life experience. No longer was I under a parental blanket, and did I have someone nearby to break my out of my rough patches. This was my time to grow up and learn the ways of the world. Luckily I met some good friends and I’ve been pretty successful in my career endeavors. The University of Advancing Technology was a great college and was well worth my choice to come out here. I graduated from the University of Advancing Technology in August of 2006 with a Bachelor in Multimedia. My ambition to pursue video games has worn down and my true calling seems to be running toward a web/graphic design position. There is nothing keeping me in Arizona, so now I look to the horizon to find a great career and will go wherever life directs me.
