“I work to highlight the humanitarian needs during an emergency and the work of Red Cross in response.” Recently, Joe covered the crisis in Mosul, Iraq. He has also undertaken humanitarian missions to Pakistan, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Vietnam and the Philippines.
“If people are going to help (Red Cross), it’s important they see what’s happening and what we are doing. Some days it is the most exciting job in the world, when you face professional challenges and overcome them.
