Bio
Dawn Tessman Visser
I had the pleasure of working with Joe at The Lacek Group. His edit requests were always clear and concise, and his handwriting was blissfully easy to read. Plus, he's an all-around fantastic person. Definitely one of my favorite copywriters ever. I truly hope our paths cross again. Snap him up quick – your company would be so lucky to have him!
Lani Nimerfro
Joe and I jumped into a tornado together and came out better on the other side. Well, at least I did. Joe’s vast knowledge of and experience in advertising made the project less intimidating and more exciting. He is always upbeat and willing to help.
Mark Henderson
Always creative. Always enthusiastic. Brings all of his energy to every project. Deep knowledge of the advertising business and what will work for your client.

Hit the ground running during the holiday rush. Quickly got up to speed on the many and varied digital ad units (and their unyielding character counts) as well as writing and producing radio for Best Buy.
