I value family, friends, history and stories. I record people, places and times in my life, as well as those in the lives of others, that are important to me. I'm happy to do the same for you.
Joel Kraft
I was born and raised in the Twin Cities and after time in Chicago, California and northern Minnesota have called the Twin Cities home again for the past 25 years. I’ve spent my time working in healthcare, homecare and real estate, enjoying time with family and friends and thoroughly exploring my home state and beyond. Much of that time in the company of great people who will forever have an impact on my life.
In doing so, I’m fortunate to have accumulated many great memories and spend a fair amount of time with them. Some of it in fear that these events, conversations and personalities I’ve encountered along the way will be forgotten. I feel better writing them down and knowing they’ve been captured for me to visit or share whenever and with whomever I want. You will, too.
I enjoy writing and do it well. I’m concise and descriptive and have the ability to present information and sometimes complex ideas in a manner easily understood. This allows me to express your stories in a flowing conversational manner that is both easy to follow and enjoyable for the reader.
I’m also curious. I’m interested to hear where people are from and the paths they’ve followed to get to the chair opposite me. I enjoy the stories of real people and real lives. Hearing the things that, when looking back, they laugh at or value more than others and why.
I value my stories and I'm genuinely interested in hearing yours. I listen closely and provide you with a well written account of the times, people and places you want remembered. We all have great stories. Let’s make sure they’re not forgotten.
