About Joe Kearns

I’ve built my name in the drone industry by doing the work. Hands-on, in the field, in the edit bay, in the boardroom, and behind the mic. Over the past decade, I’ve been a pilot, content creator, strategist, partner lead, and product storyteller. Today, I’m one of the go-to people in this space when someone needs real answers or a fresh perspective.I work across public safety, defense, enterprise, and creative sectors, helping organizations launch smarter drone programs, navigate tech shifts, and tell better stories about what they do. Whether I’m supporting a major agency rollout, guiding an OEM on product positioning, or helping public safety teams integrate new tech, I bring clarity, credibility, and connection.I also host DroneCast, where I interview the voices shaping the future of unmanned systems. That’s part of what I love most, amplifying great work and helping others level up.If it involves drones, I’ve likely worked on it. Sales, operations, marketing, training, content, advocacy. And if I haven’t, I probably know the person who has.Let’s connect if you\'re building something that needs vision, voice, and versatility.
