Joel Zepeda was born in the land of the mariachi, Guadalajara, Jalisco. At the age of 8 he moved with his family to live in California where he graduated from high school and got an Associate in Science in Architecture from Bakersfield College. Moving back to Mexico in 2010 Joel started as a full time architecture student at Instituto Tecnologico Superior de Puerto Vallarta, where he also has an athletic scholarship from playing the sport he loves, volleyball.

Joel is dedicated to his arquitecture, work and family. To date in his career, Joel has most of his experience in design, as he worked for a well-known architecture firm in Bakersfield, California and also for the county of Bahia de Banderas, Nayarit, as a design manager. 

Joel is using all his past experiences and applying them to his passionate love of architecture. Luckily for Joel, he counts on the full support of a loving family, and he in turn is happiest in the time they spend together. Whether it is going to the beach on a Sunday afternoon or just lounging around the house and watching movies… family comes first, as the love and joy in the center of Joel’s life.

Being completely bi-lingual at a university graduate level is a great asset for working in the real estate field where Joel understands the cultures and languages of clients from both sides of the border. Working with our clients on remodels and different construction projects is perfect for applying his profession of arquitecture. Joel’s experienced skills of communication and building are great benefits for Paradise Properties and our clients.
