WEB DEVELOPER + SOCIAL MEDIA – BILL DOTY

Born the left-handed middle child, Bill spent his childhood showing off to be heard. He did this by writing, drawing, and performing every chance he could get. He then figured out how to turn his new hobbies into a job. Bill has been writing and producing film since he first snuck his way onto the CBS lot. Has been designing and building websites since the days of free AOL discs littering your mail and began mastering social media long before most people knew what a selfie was. He started sinking his teeth deep into advertising around the first time he saw a “Where’s the beef?” commercial. Bill would do all of this for free, but he probably shouldn’t mention that.
