In a previous job, he worked with more than a dozen colleges and universities to conduct program evaluations and research projects.

Here at BSU, he is excited to collaborate with other IRDS staff on research projects that improve our understanding of key issues and that inform policy decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of work, Joseph roots for (and often bemoans) the Cincinnati Reds and listens to too many podcasts.
