He has created construction for several small observatories. He is now employed by UA and Steward Observatory as an Instructional Specialist\, as well as a high school teacher in Architectural Design\, CAD/Drafting and Robotics. The winner of many honors and awards in his field\, Joe is Solar System Ambassador with Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL)\, an Airborne Astronomy Ambassador with The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) and the Sofia aircraft. And still more! He’s president of the National Sharing The Sky Foundation\, and in his 17th year as Operations Manager of the Warkoczewski Observatory at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
