Joe graduated from McAllen Memorial High School, received a bachelor's degree from Texas A&M University in College Station and a Law Degree from St Mary's University in San Antonio. He returned to Mcallen as soon as he graduated from St Mary's. He was licensed to practice law in 2006 and since that time has dedicated himself to representing his community.

In his earlier years, Joe coached tennis for the McAllen Parks and Recreation summer camp for two years, then worked the following two years at the McAllen Boys and Girls Club summer program.
