Bill has a bachelor’s and master’s degrees in math from Eastern Michigan University, and has been teaching math at Northville High School for over 20 years.  He has coached various sports including basketball and track, and currently helps coach the Northville mountain biking team.

About music, Bill says, “I started playing piano for the church I grew up in (Dix United Methodist Church) when I was 14 years old.  Since then I’ve moved around a bit, but God always finds a way for me to use my talents.  When I lived in Canton, I played for Cherry Hill UMC. When we moved to Brighton in 2006, I started playing for New Hudson UMC.  My family (wife Devon, son Liam and me) started attending Brighton First in 2017 after wanting to find a church closer to home.”
