Josh originally hails from Kokomo, Indiana. He attended Indiana University to earn his bachelor’s and enrolled in an accelerated graduate program.  He attained his master’s degree in public affairs with concentrations in policy analysis, economic development, and financial administration. His desire to experience a larger city and more diverse culture, paired with the pursuit of his passion for no longer scraping ice off his car’s windshield during -12-degree weather, led him south to the University of Miami School of Law. He graduated cum laude with his law degree in 2013.

​

Outside the office, Josh enjoys playing or watching basketball and football, decompressing in the gym, working on crossword puzzles with his dad, and watching or reading almost anything created by DC or Marvel.
