Joseph Pate is from a suburban town just outside of Providence, RI. He is the oldest of five siblings and this helped create a foundation for his leadership and work ethic. In 2013, Joseph decided to enter the corporate world. While juggling being a college athlete, student and adviser, Joseph was able to graduate at the top of his class and earned his MBA at Salve Regina University in Newport, RI.Aside from his educational accomplishments, he became a trusted adviser for families and individuals under the age of 65. Joseph would work with self-employed individuals who needed health and life insurance as well as individuals that were in between jobs. Through his wealth of knowledge in the industry he provided value to his clients. However, Joseph found his true path and calling when he was asked to help a family member in need.Joseph's grandparents at the time were looking for a solution to help lower their Medicare supplement cost. Unable to reach their agent, they asked if he could research some options. Mr. & Mrs. Pate were able to keep the same exact benefits they had and were able to save $1,752 in yearly premium that year. This is when Joseph found his true calling. He used all of his resources to change his client base to prioritize his focus on helping this country's greatest generation. With the demand of seniors needing assistance with their Medicare needs, he started Medicare Joe, LLC.
