Born in Southern Illinois, Joshua is a descendant of the legendary Earp family, which includes Wyatt Earp, the iconic figure who played a pivotal role in shaping the Wild West. Wyatt's legacy influenced early cinematic legends such as John Wayne and contributed significantly to the foundation of Hollywood and the motion picture industry.

He later moved into the music industry, working with the management teams and producers behind some of the world's most prominent artists, including Justin Timberlake, Drake, Bruno Mars, Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, The Weeknd, French Montana, and Britney Spears.
Joshua's entry into the motion picture industry began with his work on major television productions, including Shameless (Netflix/Hulu), Black-ish (ABC), and Dave (Hulu/FX). His experience working alongside Oscar-winning producers, many of whom were also his clients for marketing, allowed him to develop a deep understanding of on-screen performance, unit production management, creative finance models, distribution, talent acquisition, and other core industry operations. He later went on to act, produce, market, and help finance the groundbreaking and critically acclaimed 23-time Emmy-winning television series The Bay, airing on NBC's Peacock, which has received 64 Emmy nominations in daytime television.
Further expanding his influence in Hollywood, Joshua became an executive producer of Cleaner, the latest film from multi-billion-dollar box office director Martin Campbell, starring Daisy Ridley of the Star Wars franchise.
Building on his success as both an entrepreneur and a creative, Joshua became a part-owner of Bandit Jones Studios, the prestigious television and movie studio co-founded with Emmy-winning director and producer Ewan Gotfryd, Philip Wilburn (Jimmy Kimmel Live!), and Tony Sarandos, son of Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos. Bandit Jones Studios, located on the official Netflix headquarters back lot in the heart of Hollywood, has over 18 television shows and movies in development with high-profile talent attached. Joshua plays a crucial role in the studio as an actor, producer, and head of business development.
Beyond filmmaking, Joshua is a highly sought-after keynote speaker, sharing the stage at some of the world's largest business events, as recognized by Forbes, Inc. 500, and Entrepreneur magazine. He has spoken at events like Secret Knock and many others, alongside prominent figures such as Steve Wozniak (Apple co-founder), Julez Haimovitz (Showtime co-founder), Edward Snowden, Buzz Aldrin, John Travolta, Halle Berry, Larry Namer (E! Entertainment founder), and others.
