Joe is married, and a father of 3.
 His main focus is his role as a partner in a software Company called "Groove.cm" but he loves creating Bamboo Art as a hobby.
Joe was always an artist as a kid and he loved drawing and creating Artistic things.He went on his Honeymoon in 2002 to Jamaica and was fascinated with Bamboo Art. In 2014 when he move to Jupiter, Fl (that's where the name "Jup" comes from)....he noticed there was an abundant amount of Bamboo growing and he started making Bamboo mugs which led into Bamboo Silhouettes lamps. Since then he could not keep up with the demand and to this day...most of his Art is Custom Pre-Orders.
