Info | Bill is a Colorado native and 1982 graduate of Littleton High School. He was born in Greeley in 1964 and was an orphan who was born with a heart problem and had surgery to correct it as a child. He was lucky to be adopted since most kids with a medical problem do not get chosen. Bill's adoptive parents both practiced medicine in Colorado for a long time and are distinguished members of the Colorado medical profession. He has five brothers and sisters and all but one of them still live in Colorado.
He joined the Navy to pay for the last year of college, to learn a skill, and to see the world. Bill was chosen Outstanding Recruit in his basic training Company, and subsequently earned honors and awards at every posting he had in the Navy. He spent several years working on F-14 fighters at NAS Miramar in San Diego and various aircraft carriers. His enlistment in the Navy ran out and he received his undergraduate degree from Chapman University at almost the same time. He took a job with Lockheed Martin as a civilian contractor for TOPGUN working on the airplanes.
After a couple of years at TOPGUN, Bill entered law school at The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C.. Going to law school in Washington was exciting and gave him opportunities he wouldn't have had elsewhere. He got to debate Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia when he spoke at the school on various occasions. He held jobs in the Department of Justice; with a Federal District Court Judge; and finally, on Senator John McCain's Commerce Committee staff in the U.S. Senate.
After several years in the D.C. area, Bill took a position with a large law firm in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and began a three year stint in the deep south. He also worked on Senator McCain's Presidential primary campaign against George W. Bush, Jr. That was yet another amazing and exciting experience.
