Bill comes from the high desert of New Mexico, where he received his Bachelor’s degree in English and Philosophy at University of New Mexico. He received an MA in Humanities and a PhD in English at University of Chicago, where he studied human interactions with and through technology. Bill has taught classes on science and technology studies, British and American literature, and visual culture.

He has worked with high school students from around the world, helping prepare them for college-level classes, as well as helping students prepare for and apply to graduate school. One of the things Bill most enjoys is working with students who are expanding their writing abilities at the same time they are pursuing their intellectual and personal interests. When he is not working with students, Bill enjoys talking about movies and books with friends, writing stories, and taking care of his pets.
