Joe’s main focus is
producing live shows, special events, event marketing and
museum & exhibits projects. Since joining Thinkwell,

and their parents that is currently touring museums nationwide.
As a freelance producer and production manager, Joe has
been intimately involved in the production of ten Super Bowl
halftime or pre-game shows, the Opening and Closing Ceremonies
of the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games in Atlanta, and the
Hong Kong '97 Spectacular celebrating Hong Kong's reunification
with China. Bringing that experience to Thinkwell, Joe has
focused the company's energies on creating memorable,
publicity-generating extravaganzas for a variety of sports
franchises including the Atlanta Falcons, Anaheim Angels,
Los Angeles Dodgers and the Sacramento Kings & Monarchs,
as well as sporting events including the pre & post-game
events for Super Bowls XXXVII & XXXVIII.
Prior to joining Thinkwell, Joe spent three years with Universal

of the Creative Studio, where he oversaw the concept development
of new shows and attractions for all of Universal’s
properties around the world. Joe’s many clients have
