My mission is to live a story worth sharing, inspire others to share their own and be the voice for those that can't.

Testimonials
Joe Lesko, Micro Marching League
"I'm really thankful to have Will running social media for MicroMarching.com. Before he took over, our fan pages had very little activity. Thanks to his dedication and creativity, we now have over 10,000 'likes' on Facebook and continue to grow. He's always coming up with new ideas, videos, and contests to keep the fans engaged."
Joe Petruzzi, Waylan Consulting Group
"William's professional attitude and maturity is present in all of his work. I have had William design websites and logo packages for several projects and for good reason; he is very good at what he does. His overall grasp of public relations and branding is tremendously useful for companies in need of more exposure. He has consulted with me on numerous occasions regarding media strategies and his work brings results."
Katherine Noll, Northampton CC
"Professional, mature, and intelligent, William was an asset to Northampton Community College as an intern in our Public Information Office. He was a great help in many projects, but most notably he helped develop and launch the college's official Snapchat account. He helped make our jobs a lot easier and set us up for success after his internship was over. William's insights produced great results and I highly recommend him."
Allison Wulhorst, KKPR Marketing and PR
"I worked alongside William as a fellow intern at KKPR Marketing and Public Relations. William's professionalism, critical thinking, and communication skills impressed me throughout the internship. His knowledge of social media, content creation, and how he combines the two for specific client's brands allow him to stand out against other marketing and public relations professionals. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to develop their brand and improve their online strategy or presence."
Matt Hugg, Nonprofit.Courses
"Will walked into a “cold start” situation. We had no systematic social media program, and the website was only a few months old. Since the start of his work we’ve seen solid increases in engagement on all platforms and overall use of the site. Just as important, I’m impressed with Will’s timely and thoughtful communciations. He does an excellent job keeping up with our work, even as he travels and/or attends to other work."
