Joel’s motto is: “Sucking at something is the first step to be good at it!” He believes that failure is wht fuels innovation, and that one can only truly fail by ceasing to try.
Outside of academics, Joel likes to get involved in sports and dance. He currently manages SLU’s D1 Women’s Basketball team and is a member of SLU’s premier hip-hop team, XQuizit. Joel also works as a patient care assistant for a client with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and is one of the co-founders and acting treasurer of SLU’s social dancing club, the Socialites.
Joel is a part of one of SLU’s first class of University Innovation Fellows and is expected to graduate in Spring 2020.
