Joe Quintana has a master's degree in New Media Journalism and has worked in some award-winning Hollywood films. He is also a PR Branding Consultant and a Social Media / Emerging New Web Technologies' Specialist.

Joe's passion is in human interest storytelling. He is the multimedia reporter and the Editor-in-Chief of JOURNALISM FOR THE SOUL, a website focused on stories that inspires the reader to think, act and experience life with love for self, and compassion for others. He also contributed stories as a freelance writer for Transforming the World (TTW) Magazine.

Joe demonstrates strong expertise in journalistic writing, creative storytelling, photo/video/data journalism, digital filmmaking, directing, producing, editing, motivational/religious/inspirational storytelling, infographic and various social media outlets.

As a multimedia journalist, he covers various topics, such as travels, music, theater, movies, technologies, reviews, health, lifestyles, self-help, and global issues; however, his feature narratives tend to focus on spirituality and deep human drama currently under-represented in the mainstream media today.

His storytelling skills are enhanced by his strong background in documentary filmmaking. He attended New York University, King’s College in London and London Academy of Radio, Film and Television.

Quintana travelled globally as a “filmmaker-for-hire,” documenting humanitarian and missionary works for various international civic and religious organizations. He is an active member of the International Documentary Organization and Film Independent.

Prior to the art and business of storytelling, Quintana graduated Magna Cum Laude in Pre-Medical Studies and attended Post-Graduate Programs at Columbia and Harvard University.
