Over the next four years, he transitioned into programming and systems programming. From there, he went on to work at MuRata Erie in State College, where he was promoted to Systems Analyst, Project Manager, and ultimately to Client Services Manager. 

Joe’s passion for technology and leadership led him to open Solution Technologies, Inc. in Altoona, PA, in 1994, which he expanded to its first Western PA branch in Pittsburgh in 1995, growing the branches to over thirty consultants in Altoona and twenty in Pittsburgh. He led the Altoona division when the company was sold to Metro Information Services in 2000, winning several months of YO (Your Outstanding) awards for highest profitable branches in the 42-branch company.
