Joe’s performances led him to Orlando, FL and Miami, FL under the mentorship and collaboration of Frank Vardaros (Frankie V), where he met Dan Jordan and other musicians from the Orlando jazz scene.

In 2016, Joe re-established his Quintet adding his original compositions to the play list. His most recent musical endeavors have kept him in the Central Florida area where he continues his mentorship with Dan Jordan.
