Some of Joe's achievements include:
He continues to speak to schools and community organizations. As an example, he has spoken to 12,500 students in 124 schools in Michigan during the 2001 and 2002 school season alone and averages 60 school visits per year. This year, in 2013 he will be visiting 84 libraries in 70 days.
In 2003 PaleoJoe participated in a Dinosaur dig at Como Bluff, Wyoming with famed maverick paleontologist Dr. Robert T. Bakker.
In 2004 he discovered ribs of an 11 Million-year-old Rhino in Nebraska at the Ashfall Fossil Beds while digging with famed paleontologist Michael Voorhies.
In 2007 he worked on a team recovering T- Rex Dinosaur and discovered bones of a Triceratops in Montana.
In 2008 he discovered remains of an associated Camarasaurus – a 60-foot long dinosaur in the deserts of Utah. Last year while finishing the Camarasaurus dig, he uncovered remains of an Apatosaurus.
In 2013 he discovered remains of another long-necked dinosaur, an Apatosaurus.
In 2015 he discovered remains of a prehistoric Armor-Plated Fish that so far may be a new undescribed species.
In 2016 he discovered serveral Denonian Fish in Apena, Michigan that are now part of the collection of the University Of Michigan Museum of Palentology.
