Description
 

Bill has been referred to as "ridiculously flexible", and the most common thing he hears from those new to his work are "wait, THAT'S him, too?". Bill has over 30 years experience in radio production and sound design for major market radio, theater and film, but his youthful yet classically masculine style is ageless. Characters, "straight", jingles, nerdy, goofy, dramatic, musical. A Renaissance Man, if there ever was one, who can fit into most any category you like, and probably has done so already. His level of professionalism and ability to be completely serious or completely off the wall with his work is without parallel.
