A Leader who will fight for us

While serving in the National Guard, Joel met the love of his life and future wife Jazmine. Joel and Jazmine have 2 daughters, aged six and one.

Education

After graduating Thomas Downey High School, Joel attended Modesto Junior College, CSU Stanislaus, and finally graduated with a Master’s Degree in Urban and Regional Planning from San Jose State.
