Interview With Joe Zimet

Just recently I had the pleasure of interviewing Joe Zimet, my elbow partner. Through this, I was able to learn more about him. I now have the privilege of sharing this information with you so that we can all know him better. Joe was born in England where he lived for the first year of his life. He has a “pretty tight relationship” with his family, especially his brother Tom. Those who know both of them often say that they look almost exactly the same. He enjoys school and has been in both the EAP program and the AAP program. In case you don’t know, those are advanced academic programs offered by the Northshore School District. Despite this focus on school, he tells me, "baseball is my passion." He plays on a local team and enjoys watching
the Saint Louis Cardinals. When pressed further, he explained, "it has made me more hardworking and competitive," two traits that are important in modern-day society. As I was interviewing him, I got the feeling that he likes to joke around. When asked if there was anything important that I had missed he replied, "I like eating food." Talking with Joe has been both an enlightening and fun experience for me. Hearing about what makes Joe, Joe. It makes it easier to understand where he's coming from and where he's going.
