As the founder and CEO of Project Redemption, Joe’s journey with technology began long before he could legally drive. Back then, his mom would haul him around town to fix computers—and he’s been hands-on with tech ever since. He came up during the dot-com boom and spent the next 25 years building a career in corporate IT: engineering systems, leading transformation projects, and helping organizations recover from front-page tech disasters.

Over the years, Joe has worked across hundreds of IT departments and learned a hard truth: most failures don’t come from big, flashy hacks—they come from small oversights no one caught. He built a career out of catching those. He specializes in reading between the lines of incident reports, identifying root causes, and translating complex technical problems into plain English for legal, security, and PR teams. That skill has become even more critical in today’s threat landscape—especially in crypto.

Joe brings that same vigilance and pragmatism to Web3, where hype has too often outpaced trust. Billions have been lost to cyberattacks, rug pulls, and broken promises—largely because platforms chased speed over security. That’s not how Joe works.

With Project Redemption, he’s doing it differently. Security is embedded into the architecture—not a checkbox at the end. From day one, the team has been laying a foundation built for scale: auditability, KYC/AML compliance, smart contract safety, and business logic that actually makes sense.

The business model is designed to be sustainable: real value creation through merchant subscriptions, transaction fees, and premium memberships—not speculative hype. Project Redemption isn’t trying to time the market—it’s building a long-term ecosystem where rewards hold real value, adoption is frictionless, and compliance provides staying power, not friction.

Joe didn’t enter Web3 because it was trendy—he stepped in because the infrastructure was finally mature enough to build something meaningful. Project Redemption is his way of doing just that: a blockchain-powered rewards platform that bridges old-world businesses and next-gen technology without losing trust in the process.

This isn’t a moonshot. It’s a business. And Joe plans to build it like one—secure, compliant, and built to last.
