Joe Stallone

Joe Stallone is the founder of CREW Magazine and a lifelong blue collar professional who built his career from the ground up. He got his start in the trades working for a security installation company, learning the craft hands-on before taking the leap to launch his own security installation business. Specializing in high–net-worth residential properties, Joe’s work evolved from basic installs to advanced consulting and the design of exotic, high-end security systems. His journey—from the jobsite to business ownership—drives his passion for elevating the trades, sharing real-world knowledge, and giving blue collar professionals the recognition and platform they deserve through CREW Magazine.
