If you’ve stopped into the agency any time in the last few months, chances are, you’ve probably met Joe. While Joe focuses all of his time here at the agency on marketing, he sits at the front of our office, and he greets all of our customers with a smile and a friendly “hello!” Not to mention, if there’s ever a computer issue, Joe is our go-to guy.
We wanted to get to know Joe even better though, so we asked him a few questions to see who Joe really is. Check it out!
Who is Joe Estey outside of Paradiso Insurance?
Well, I care about my family and friends above everything. I’m a millennial trying to make a difference and show other generations that my generation has a lot to offer in this world. I’m an animal lover, a competitor, and a personable guy overall.
What do you like to do with your free time?
I go out and travel a lot, and I’m a part-time professional gamer on nights and weekends, meaning I go to video game tournaments to compete for money. Beyond that, I like to hit the gym, go on hikes, and have a night in here and there with friends or family.
What is your favorite joke?
What is red and smells like blue paint?
… Red paint.
What are your favorite hobbies or pastimes?
Well I mentioned some of my hobbies above, but some of my pastimes are the family vacations that my family used to take when I was young. Every summer we’d choose a different destination, and it was always a good time. My family is spread out all over the place nowadays, so sometimes I wish I could go back to the good ole days.
Can you tell us about the last vacation you took?
I actually haven’t taken a vacation in quite a while, but the last time I took a full-out vacation, it was a trip to Arizona. I spent a week with some close friends of mine who gave me a place to stay, and we created countless memories in that week alone. Like I said, I love my friends and family, so whenever I’m with them, I’m basically on vacation anyways!
How has life changed for you since you started working at Paradiso Insurance?
I can’t thank my Paradiso family enough for how far I’ve come since I joined the agency. I have met many new and amazing people, I’m much more involved with the local community and getting behind causes, and this opportunity has even allowed me to move into my own place, which is something I’ve wanted for a long time. I’ve also found a very good friend, brother, and mentor in Chris Paradiso, and I am very thankful for our amazing team.
