Experience

Since graduating from Lee University in 2014, Joshua has not put his pen down, from contributing to publications like Elite Daily, The Washington Times, and Kulture Hub, to being a general reporter for OZY media, where he reported on politics, education, tech, and much more. More recently, he's been freelancing for BET and ESPN's The Undefeated, where he's interviewed Bryson Tiller, Ludacris, Nelly, and Alcorn State's Fred McNair. It only made sense when Joshua, who is naturally a pop-culture enthusiast and consumes the genre in his pastime, joined Nicki Swift at the end of 2021 as a features writer, where he brings his perspective, flavor, and candor to all things celebrity.

Education

Joshua has a bachelor's degree in communication and journalism from Lee University, a small liberal arts Christian university in the valleys of Cleveland, Tennessee.
