Joel Cohen

Hi, I'm Joel Cohen — a recent University of Maryland graduate with a degree in Information Science and a minor in Real Estate Development. I'm passionate about technology and people, and I'm driven to build a career in tech sales where I can bridge the gap between complex digital solutions and real-world business needs. I thrive on understanding how technology works and translating that knowledge into clear, confident guidance for others. I'm excited to help organizations solve problems, grow smarter, and build toward a sustainable, tech-forward future. Outside of work, I'm always learning — whether it's diving into new technologies, exploring the ocean as a scuba diver, building with LEGOs, or tracking trends in investing and sports. I bring curiosity, energy, and a collaborative spirit to everything I do.
