While earning his Bachelor's Degree from Saint Mary's College in Moraga California, he was awarded a Black Belt in a mixed martial art and started running a series of endurance races that culminated in the completion of the Western States 100 mile run in California's Sierra Nevada mountains. While establishing a successful sales career, Bill continued pursuing various passions including skydiving, helicopter/airplane piloting and yachting. More recently, he experienced a literal and figurative accident that inspired him to share his story. Raised in Chula Vista as the oldest boy in an Irish-Catholic family of 12, Bill currently lives in Southern California with his wife Michelle.view less
