With a passion for helping people, Joei is where she is supposed to be. She gets to share this passion with both coworkers and clients. Joei strives to help individuals grow within the firm and work towards providing them with a set of tools to help them be successful. She enjoys answering client questions and helping grow their business. Joei learns through helping them just as much as they learn from her.
Joei started working with Ketel Thorstenson, LLP in 2014 and has grown tremendously in her career since then – and she is not done growing or learning! There are so many moving parts in this profession that she feels like she will always be learning and challenged. Being a leader in the tax department has provided Joei with several responsibilities that allow her to be a part of a firm that is continuing to grow, be a destination employer, and provide top notch client service.
Joei assists clients with individual tax returns, business tax returns, and serves as a member of the niche group for Agriculture clients. Growing up with a farm/ranching background helps Joei provide great service to these individuals.
What is great about working in a public firm is the client interaction, team efforts, and the opportunities and challenges that come along with such a diverse group of both coworkers and clients. The advantage for clients is having a one stop shop depending on what their needs are. There are multiple departments and team members that specialize in different areas so that no one person is required to have all the answers.

Personal
Her strong work ethic and passion for people shines through both personally and professionally. Joei is fortunate to have a large extended family and solid foundation of friends. She is married and has three children that she and her husband raised in Sturgis, SD. They enjoy outdoor activities such as riding ATV’s, hunting, lake life, camping, and traveling to new places. Joei also enjoys reading, hiking, shopping, and being present in whatever each day brings.
Joei is a goal setter, and she does a pretty good job at meeting goals that she sets for herself – both personally and professionally. She is always striving to get better and be better. We all have strengths and weaknesses, and Joei may talk too much or ask too many questions – and her kids would agree with that! But it is because she wants to learn about someone or something. You should strive to learn something new every day – even if it is something super simple.
