Joe Bowen

Joe Bowen (aka Captain Joe) was born in Milwaukee, WI in 1985. He grew up for most of his life in Lake Orion, MI. Eventually was able to reach the level of Eagle Scout and graduate high school in 2003. During college at Purdue University, Joe came down with a debilitating depression. Even with the illness, he was able to graduate in 2007 with a Bachelors of Science in Computer Engineering. He is very passionate about the study of computers and math. After much struggle through college and beyond, with the help of his beautiful wife Cassandra and many others, the Captain is here today to bring you along on his quest for Beal's Treasure. Due to his familiarity with mental illness, the Captain pledges a portion of the prize to mental health research.
