"While living in Southern California, I realized my passion was to help others, and I became a Police Officer at the age of 21," he wrote. "Before my 16-year career was cut short due to injuries sustained in the line of duty, ultimately leading to early retirement, I took great pride in helping people with everyday difficulties and putting them at ease."

Joshua added that his career in policing actually helped him on his path to becoming a realtor: "With my previous career solving problems, helping others through difficult situations and my love for real estate, I made the decision to get my Texas real estate license."
