About Joshua Mortensen

As the Managing Editor and co-founder of Barn Finds, I spend my days tracking down finds to feature, helping our team of writers perfect their articles, and provide sellers with guidance on how best to find a good home for their classic. In what little spare time I have, I spend it wrenching in the Barn Finds Garage.
