Joseph Jens Price was born in Yacolt, Washington, United States of America. After completing his education, Joseph took up several odd jobs. He then started working as a HVAC technician and was an expert in heating and air conditioning systems. He then took up a job at a local karaoke bar called ‘Timbers.’ Since Joseph was good at singing, he was assigned the job of keeping the customers entertained. While performing one of his favorite songs, he caught the attention of Tonya Harding, who had visited ‘Timbers’ at the time of his performance.
When Tonya was impressed by Joseph’s singing skills, she wanted to know him better. Joseph and Tonya dated for a few months before Tonya decided to take the relationship to the next level.
