He also served the Columbia School Disttrict.
Here is his biograhy from the Hempfield School District website:

Prior to working for Manheim Township, Joe worked for Columbia School District as their Business Manager and also worked for the PA Office of Auditor General where he performed audits of school districts. Joe is a graduate of Lancaster Catholic HS and Penn State where he earned a BS in Accounting.
Joe has been married for nearly 20 years to Lynn who is a graduate of Hempfield. They have two daughters, Kari and Kristin, who currently attend Hempfield schools.
