He originally wanted to work at New Liverpool Metro like his parents, he often loved accompanying his parents on trips around town, often enjoying just walking through stations in the network. When he was 15, he started at Two River High School, it was poorly funded and people there often never graduated, however, Joseph ended up scoring well enough to get accepted into the Wells Academy, a private school that cost $10,000 per year. Joseph ended up agreeing to help pay the cost by taking a job at Sun-Mart. Until college, his days would often be filled with schoolwork than to his job than home. At his school, he was made fun of for working and often looking tired. His classmates described him as keeping to himself, yet smart. He was often at the end of jokes about his lack of money. He was accepted into New Liverpool University with a major in political theory and a minor in business.
