As a child Josh had an adventurous, creative mischievous spirit. He

moved to Pahrump, Nevada, to live with his father and stepmother. He returned to Petaluma in 2002 and worked for Machado Brothers. In 2007 he graduated at the top of his class from Nevada School of Construction, and resumed his job operating heavy machinery, a lifelong dream fulfilled.
