Basic Background
Joe was born in Southwest Virginia in early
1955. He often tells people, as a joke, that he started his
traveling career at a very early age when his very first
traveling adventure took place at age 6 (1961) and landed
him in Brooklyn, New York to live with his mother.
There, he did attend Public School 140 for
a couple of years before returning back to Virginia to live
with his Grandmother.
Many of his summers were spent with his Aunt & Uncle, on
his
mothers side, in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
His uncle was a Union Organizer that required him to travel
extensively throughout the south and Joe use to tag along to
see new places and meet new faces. Many of his uncles clients were
nurses also. He still recalls those days when they would drive for
over 400 miles or more, have a one-hour meeting in some clinic, and then start
their return trip
back toward Chattanooga.
As he beginning his high school
years, Joe favored math and other sciences. Another Aunt on
his
fathers side was a Registered Nurse also, and Joe remembers looking
up to her many times because she always knew what to do when
someone became ill.
At the end of his high school years, Joe
headed back to Brooklyn again. There his Step Father Frank
(Hot Dogs) Germano (a.k.a. Porky's Germano in the boxing
arena to figures such Jake LaMata, Rocky Marciano and
others) got him a job as an Assistant Manager of an Automotive Supply
Warehouse that was home-based in Pennsylvania. Joe stayed in
New York until he was 21 at which time he returned to
Virginia for a few months before entering the United Stated
Air Force about a year after his son Chad was born.
Immediately upon entering the Air Force,
Joe
returned back to school. He started back into the science
field again with courses in biology, chemistry, math, and a new
thing that was hitting the scene in the 1970's - computer science. At the
time Joe was directing his attention mostly toward the medical
field.
Call it luck, fait, or whatever....but,
somehow the United States Air Force placed him into the
Information Systems field and he starting working on
mainframes and writing programs and training personnel at
base level while assigned to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, North
Carolina.
Very quickly Joe was pulled into the
Strategic Air Command at Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha,
Nebraska for three years to work with new computer systems that required
him to obtain a
Top Secret clearance.
Still going to school nearly every night
pursuing his degrees, and working full-time, Joe was then given
the privilege of working with some of the best systems
personnel in the world and was assigned to the Headquarters Air
Force Military Personnel Center at Randolph Air Force Base, Texas for over four years.
By this time, in 1985 he had received his
first degree from the Community College of the Air Force in
Resource Management. According to Joe, it was ok, but still
he desired more.
So, he continued to plug along at his educational endeavors.
After spending over 4 years at Randolph,
Joe
headed into Korea for a year to manage a computer systems at Osan Air Base.
He recalls those working days
at Osan being very rough and he took a year off from school during
that period of time from July 1986 through July 1987.
From 1987 to the later part of 1989 the
Tactical Air Command drafted Joe to Moody Air Force Base,
Georgia to test a new $650 million dollar system the Air
Force was planning on implementing world-wide. While assigned at Moody,
Joe was able to obtain his Bachelor Degree in Management from
Valdosta State College in 1988; at present, Valdosta State
College has changed their name to Valdosta State University.
Still not satisfied, Joe continued his studies further for a
Masters degree. After departing Georgia, he was assigned to
Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho to bring up the system
he had
been testing at Moody. While assigned at Mountain Home he
was afforded the opportunity to go to school full-time to
seek his Masters
degree. In April 1991, Joe received his Masters Business
Administration (MBA) in Management from Golden Gate
University in San Francisco, California.
In July 1992, Joe departed the Air Force
with over sixteen years active duty time. He took a break for a few months
and started back to school this time directly into a Nursing
Program he had been trying to accomplish for years. It was very difficult,
according to Joe, during his Air Force career
to concentrate within the medical field simply because most
educational programs offered at most bases were all business
and management type courses.
After obtaining his degree in Nursing, Joe
started working directly on a Cardiothoracic Surgery Unit
doing open hearts and working with cardiac catheterization
patients.
At that time he was a staff member with a
major hospital in Virginia which was over 150 miles away from
his home. They would
put him up in a nearby hotel from Friday - Monday every
weekend. After a year of living in a hotel, it became very
old, very quickly according to Joe. He attempted to negotiate an apartment or
other accommodations,
but for some technical reason, the hospital would refused to do it
- which never made sense to him whatsoever. They would pay
for a hotel every weekend, but would not pay for an
apartment which would have been considerably cheaper.
So, after a year, Joe started his travel
nursing adventures. He worked at several hospitals in South
Carolina working with Cardiac and Renal patients. Landed in
Hawaii working with Cardiac patients and Renal transplants.
Back to a hospital in North Carolina in
Critical Care Services. From there, he landed at Duke
University for nearly two years doing Heart and Lung
Transplants in addition to the regular open hearts and
cardiac catheterizations.
Before leaving Duke University, Joe did work
the pulmonary floor for several months with ventilators and
patients requiring continuous Flolan infusions for their illnesses. Still keeping
up with his studies, he received an online Masters Of Science in
Nursing from Concordia College and University in 2004.
After leaving Duke University
itself, he moved out the front door and across the street to
the Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center. There he
was assigned as Charge Nurse for a Medical Surgery Ward. It was
basically a catch all floor of all kinds of surgery's.
Mostly orthopedics, but ever now and then he would catch his
favorite patient which was
Cardiac in nature.
The nice thing about working for the
Veterans Affairs in Durham, according to Joe, was he was working with
some of the same
doctors he worked with at Duke University. In addition,
Joe given back 16+ years
Air Force time for retirement purposes with the Federal Government.
So, after working for the Veterans Administration for about a
year in Durham, Joe transferred to the Department Of Defense
in Hawaii. He currently is assigned to the Critical Care
Services Area and performs as Charge Nurse.
He also moonlights for private individuals
and hospitals throughout the Island of O'ahu. A lot of times
when he moonlights, he works various Emergency Departments at
local hospitals. If is not there he'll be monitoring Cardiac
patients somewhere either within an Intensive Care Unit or
Telemetry Unit.
Joe does hire himself out to private
individuals more and more these days due to his upcoming
retirement in the near future with the Federal Government.
I will, and do travel for patients and or
families to meet private needs says Joe. My clients pay all expenses in advance, to including travel and lodging which I
book myself because I'm also a Travel Consultant. My time is hired out normally at $150 per hour
but not less than $1000 per day for 8 hours. I mostly only
consider working nights from 8:00 PM to 8:00 AM. For more
