Joe joined the Henry’s Fork Foundation in 2025 as the Field and Lab Coordinator. He oversees much of the field and laboratory work, including maintaining in-situ equipment, conducting water quality sampling, and supporting fish ladder operations—contributing to HFF’s science-based conservation efforts. Joe is passionate about long-term watershed stewardship that promotes healthy fisheries and resilient habitats across the Upper Snake River basin.
Currently pursuing a biology degree at Idaho State University, Joe lives with his family in Idaho Falls. He grew up in southeast Idaho and deeply values the wild landscapes that shaped him. Outside of work, he enjoys bowhunting, fly-fishing, and exploring Idaho’s public lands—often accompanied by his two sons.
“The most fulfilling part of working at HFF is contributing to the conservation of places that have given me so much. I’m grateful to be part of a team that applies rigorous science to safeguard these resources so that future generations can experience the same sense of connection, purpose, and wonder.”
