Joel was born and raised in Anderson, Indiana. He attended Anderson University where he met his wife Megan. After getting married they lived in Nashville, Tennessee from 2013-2020.

Upon moving back home, they settled in Cicero, Indiana where they now live with their five year old son Mitchell. Joel’s son currently attends the Little Huskies Pre-K at Hamilton Heights.

Megan and Joel have always had a heart for healthcare. His wife is a nurse practitioner at Community Health. Joel works in the Coumadin Clinic and Outpatient Pharmacy at Riverview Health in Noblesville.
  • I'm running to protect our children by requiring background checks on third party gun sales in Indiana.
  • I'm running to fight for women to have reproductive rights over their own bodies in Indiana.
  • I'm running to ensure that Hoosier families have affordable housing options in Indiana.
I’m running for State Senate so that our children can live in the Indiana they deserve. This starts with our kids feeling safe at school. The simplest way to ensure this is with common sense gun laws.

My wife and I lived in Nashville, TN for seven years. When we heard about the shooting that happened at The Covenant School in 2023, we were truly heartbroken. My goal is to help ensure that a tragedy like that never happens in the state of Indiana.

I believe in the Second Amendment and the right to bear arms, but I also believe there are simple ways to prevent access to bad actors. The easiest way is to require background checks on the sale of firearms at gun shows and third party sales. My goal is to make this a non-partisan issue, so that Democrats and Republicans can join together to keep our Hoosier children safe.
