Personal: Son of Paul and Maria...In high school, Joseph was the AA Legion state runner-up. His favorite hobby is skiing. Joseph is majoring in economics. He chose to come to Franciscan because he wants to study and grow in a place where he is surrounded by good Catholic people encouraging him to be a better man of God and to also play baseball. After graduation, he hopes to find a job in business or government, grow in faith, and possibly live in Montana or Washington. His favorite hobby is backpacking. His patron saint is St. Joseph.
