About William
I first got my feet wet turning wrenches while racing open-class autocross; making slow things fast and converting otherwise affordable vehicles into unreasonably expensive race cars.
After completing trade school, I went to work for Ford as a transmission/diesel tech where I later became one of the youngest senior master techs produced by Ford at the time.
In 2009, I became the fleet manager for a large armored truck company where I was directly responsible for three branches, which totaled just under 60 med/heavy engine vehicles. Since 2009 I have worked almost exclusively on CDL-type class 6 and 8 (though many vehicles would range from class 1 to 9) over-the-road commercial vehicles until I began at ALLDATA.
I am actively pursuing a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering with a minor in mathematics. My personal hobbies are laughably diverse – anywhere from playing the pipe organ and solving various-sized/shaped Rubik’s cubes, to juggling and competing in Ironman triathlons. My music preferences include mostly anyone who’s already dead and who wore silly wigs.
