Personal Details

Bio

Fellow Members and Guests,

Discoverer, architect, author, designer, father, founder, initiator, innovator, inventor, maker, mastermind, pioneer, producer, begetter.

My name is Joseph Evans and I consider myself an originator.

Originally from Redwood Falls, I grew up with my mother and 3 siblings which I was the youngest of.

I spent my time as a child riding bike through Ramsey Park to the pool.

Without a lot of friends, I typically resorted to returning home for some time on my Super Nintendo.

To entertain myself I developed a lot of hobbies over the years including the habit of destroying and fixing everything I could get my hands on.

What started with Legos, turned into bikes, computers, skateboards, cars, as well as my very own life.

This self-destructive behavior seems to have begun at about the age of twelve.

By age fourteen I was in my first institute for “behavioral issues” and highly medicated.

In 2006 I earned my first Felony conviction.

Being institutionalized throughout the school year I dropped out and obtained my GED.

Eventually being released and allowed to remain on house arrest for the duration of my trial, I was contacted by a National Guard recruiter.

Returning to court they had agreed to drop the felony in Lou of my joining the military, as a combat engineer, specializing in explosives and building bridges.

I returned from Fort Lost in the Woods Missouri with a certificate of completion for training, along with a Reenlistment Code of 4 from a failed drug test.

I continued a miniature reign of terror on my own life by receiving a felony drug conviction for the sales of ecstasy in large quantities.

I spent my first stay as an adult in a real jail cell commuting to Minnesota West’s Granite Falls Campus for the computer support and repair program.

Having begun this prior to my stay at the county motel, it was a serious challenge to keep up, considering most of my work was either online or on a computer.

After my stay at the Redwood County Jail I began working with my father who had contacted me after seeing me in the newspaper.

I developed 52 websites targeting every avenue of the Industrial Bakery Equipment Market.

This was my first step back into a creative world.

The time came to an end with my father’s company and I moved on to Marshall.

Commuting to jonti-craft to make a living I needed to do something with my life.

I saw an ad in the newspaper for a registration deadline at the university and enrolled that week.

I opted into the Graphic design program being the closest thing to web development.

I had been writing code since I was 16 and in my first 3 years of college I never saw a bit of it.

However, I had gained a new perception on life, my definition of beauty, and an aesthetics in general.

Between the clubs I’d been involved in, to the startup tech company that failed fast, I constantly added new endeavors to my plate.

Collecting experiences had become my new hobby.
