Autorenporträt
Joseph Davis is a guitar hobbyist whose passion for music emerged in the summer of 1966 after a couple of informal guitar lessons at Camp Echo in New York's Catskill Mountains. Over the next few years he also studied piano while continuing to develop as a serious guitarist. In the late 1960s and early 1970s Joe played electric guitar and occasionally organ in local bands in Miami, Florida, and later in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Inspired by the musicianship of a high school friend, in late 1971 Joe switched his focus to acoustic guitar. With his enlistment in the United States Navy in the autumn of 1975, Joe's initial plans of becoming a professional guitarist gave way to a career in the military.While serving in the armed forces, in May 1985 Joe earned an Associate of Science (AS) degree in Electronics Technology from San Diego City College. Three years later he received a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Atmospheric Science from the University Of Kansas in Lawrence, leading to a commission as an unrestricted line officer. During his twilight naval tour, Joe owned and operated what was then San Diego's only franchised ATA (American Taekwondo Association) Black Belt Academy. Joe also holds six information technology certifications, including Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE).Joe continued playing guitar throughout his years in the navy, which included teaming up with shipmates for gigs at local nightclubs in southeast San Diego and occasional impromptu engagements, such as an overseas performance in the Philippines. Throughout his naval adventure, Joe wrote and eventually registered ten songs with the U.S. Copyright Office.Joe's musical background further includes informal teaching experience in music theory, piano, and guitar. He resides in Port Orchard, Washington, with his wife-Savitree, daughter-Amy, and son-Angel.
