About Me

Rebel with a cause. Hired gun. Analytics junkie. Optimist. Cynic. Serial envelope pusher. Cult creator. Antihero. Pick one, and Joey embodies it. Recently, Joey has taken on the challenge of “saving the world” by founding sf35, an organization which introduces high-performance capacity entrepreneurs from under-served communities to experienced advisors and customers.

Since launching digitalguestlist.com as a graduate student in 2002, Joey has grown the site to 80,000 subscribers/users, and has advertised thousands of events for Fortune 500 companies, agencies, and high-profile promoters during special events weekends like NBA All-Star, Super Bowl, and Essence Music Festival. And using innovative digital marketing strategies, he has also planned and promoted events in the Southeast for brands such as Crown Royal, Ciroc, Smirnoff, Coors Light, Warner Bros., and Hennessy.

Joey received his Masters of Business Administration from Florida A&M University, where he was also initiated into the Beta Nu Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha, Fraternity, Inc. He currently resides in Atlanta, GA.
