Fellow Members and Guests, Discoverer, architect, author, designer, father, founder, initiator, innovator, inventor, maker, mastermind, pioneer, producer, begetter. My name is Joseph Evans and I consider myself an originator. Originally from Redwood Falls, I grew up with my mother and 3 siblings which I was the youngest of. I spent my time as a child riding bike through Ramsey Park to the pool. Without a lot of friends, I typically resorted to returning home for some time on my Super Nintendo. To entertain myself I developed a lot of hobbies over the years including the habit of destroying and fixing everything I could get my hands on. What started with Legos, turned into bikes, computers, skateboards, cars, as well as my very own life. This self-destructive behavior seems to have begun at about the age of twelve. By age fourteen I was in my first institute for “behavioral issues” and highly medicated. In 2006 I earned my first Felony conviction. Being institutionalized throughout the school year I dropped out and obtained my GED. Eventually being released and allowed to remain on house arrest for the duration of my trial, I was contacted by a National Guard recruiter. Returning to court they had agreed to drop the felony in Lou of my joining the military, as a combat engineer, specializing in explosives and building bridges. I returned from Fort Lost in the Woods Missouri with a certificate of completion for training, along with a Reenlistment Code of 4 from a failed drug test. I continued a miniature reign of terror on my own life by receiving a felony drug conviction for the sales of ecstasy in large quantities. I spent my first stay as an adult in a real jail cell commuting to Minnesota West’s Granite Falls Campus for the computer support and repair program. Having begun this prior to my stay at the county motel, it was a serious challenge to keep up, considering most of my work was either online or on a computer. After my stay at the Redwood County Jail I began working with my father who had contacted me after seeing me in the newspaper. I developed 52 websites targeting every avenue of the Industrial Bakery Equipment Market. This was my first step back into a creative world. The time came to an end with my father’s company and I moved on to Marshall. Commuting to jonti-craft to make a living I needed to do something with my life. I saw an ad in the newspaper for a registration deadline at the university and enrolled that week. I opted into the Graphic design program being the closest thing to web development. I had been writing code since I was 16 and in my first 3 years of college I never saw a bit of it. However, I had gained a new perception on life, my definition of beauty, and an aesthetics in general. Between the clubs I’d been involved in, to the startup tech company that failed fast, I constantly added new endeavors to my plate. Collecting experiences had become my new hobby.

I have a shocking training confession: I’m a bad student. I know what it’s like to stare at a screen and be frustrated by poorly implemented learning programs. By engaging people with the right content, in the right place at the right time, I can get people excited about learning in our distracted world. I’ve always liked sharing knowledge. As a kid, I was the person who read the museum plaque so I could tell my family what I learned. Today, I do the same thing on a larger scale through instructional design and multimedia learning technologies. In short, I unpack topics into easy to understand learning. At Mindset Digital I develop videos and online courses to educate learners on social media and online best practices. When planning each video, course and training session, I like to think about the big picture. This involves: ● unpacking objectives to ensure each training program engages and educates the learner, aligns with organizational goals and provides an appropriate solution. ● designing high-impact visuals to capture the audience's attention ● staying on top of current advances and changes in learning technology to deliver results with optimum effectiveness and efficiency I like to joke that I’m extremely motivated by my own laziness. There’s a kernel of truth to it, though: I love finding new shortcuts so people can work smarter and no harder than a task requires. It’s refreshing when I can take what I’ve learned and help somebody do their job better. And every success story just inspires me to keep pushing further in the quest for more learning and better results. Specialties include: public speaking & workshop facilitation | instructional design | training | learning technology | E-learning | project management | PowerPoint | digital transformation | L&D strategy | community management

With years of experience navigating the competing priorities of engineering, product, sales, and customer support, I help companies ship profitable software. I also speak about product and UX strategy from time to time, and I credit my early career as a middle school teacher for a dash of exposure therapy that has prepared me for a life of presentations. :) Likes: - Small, nimble teams. - Change and people who are ok with change. - When @dhh gets particularly insightful. - Craft beer, although this is now about as original as having a beard. - My daughter's preschool songs. - Deploying. - The cold side of the pillow. - Trello. It's basically the best app ever made. (Don't ruin this for me, Atlassian.) Dislikes: - Arugula. - Waiting for "sign-off". - When @dhh gets particularly righteous. - Those two times the Rangers were within a strike of winning the World Series, and yet didn't. - LinkedIn summaries. I Believe: - You should build less than you think you need to. - "Your intellectual opponents aren't evil." - Russ Roberts (@econtalker) - The company that ships will beat the company in yet another meeting. - What you choose to leave out of your product is often as important as what you decide to put in.
