I am a professional broadcaster, host, consultant, entrepreneur, higher education professor, content creator, and veteran event manager. My main focus is on gaming, esports, education, ​and technology. I have worked in radio, television, live streaming and as the founder of the Jolumi Media firm (Joe-lou-me), I consult for multiple esports, gaming, sports, tech, and education companies. I have been a gamer and self-proclaimed NERD ever since I was a kid when my dad managed Radio Shacks in Oklahoma. I have been a professor in higher education since 2013 and am a current Senior Instructor at the College of Esports in London, UK. I have worked in the non-profit and traditional sports industry for over 24 years with the YMCA, NCAA, NAIA, Parks and Recs, Sports Commissions, and the Chamber of Commerce. In 2018, I helped create the non-profit 501(c)3 charity the Videogames and Esports Foundation (VEF) as the Executive Director and now serves as the President & Co-Founder.
