Born of 1's and 0's [10.10.00] and named with the 10th initial³, enjoying the journey from 0 to 1 comes naturally to Joshua.
He launched his first company at 18, winning a national pitch competition and earning a spot in the iVenture Accelerator at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. There, he studied business, built startups, and after graduating in 2023, founded the creative collective OTHER®.
Joshua and The Others have since originated eminent institutions like DEMi, Chicago Fashion Week, the Museum of House, BronzeWell, Honors Fund, et al.
A truly interdisciplinary designer, Joshua creates identities, products, systems, campaigns, experiences, and businesses—each one a piece of a world imagined anew. His approach is expansive, treating creation as a tool for progress and considering each challenge through its symbolic, systemic, and cultural implications.
Joshua is often inspired by his digital-native, queer experience and first-generation, Midwestern upbringing.
He now lives and works in “the middle of everything”: Chicago.
