Bill comes to us from Lincoln, Nebraska, where he graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in August 2010 with a degree in Broadcast-journalism and concentrations in English and History.

His most rewarding experience in journalism came in the summer of 2010 when he served on the official documentation team for the Special Olympics USA National Games.

“Those athletes are inspiring. Having the opportunity to meet and speak with them everyday is something I will never forget.”

When Bill isn’t working for WDAY, he enjoys following all Nebraska Cornhusker athletics, as well as his loveable losers, the Chicago Cubs. He also enjoys going to the gym and brushing up on his movie trivia.
