Meet Joe Rotundi
Joe Rotondi
Executive Director | The Forge
Joe’s journey to the Forge began with bartending. Moving to the area a decade ago, he quickly became intoxicated with the Greensboro’s sense of community. This led him to event planning and logistics for local nonprofits, and ultimately to UNCG to study Social Entrepreneurship. A combination of product testing, volunteerism, and community led him to the Forge as a member. His inability to say no to new and interesting ideas led him to a position as the Executive Director.
About The Forge
The Forge is a nonprofit, community makerspace. At first glance, it is like a gym: members pay monthly to have access to tools and equipment to make almost anything. At its core, it is a means to attract and grow a community of makers who learn, make, invent, and collaborate together.
