In May 2005, Bill, graduated from Boston College and began working behind the scenes in the film and television industry. When Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in September of 2005, Bill felt compelled to act. He knew if he could get there he could do something to help. What started as a two-week break from his job turned in to a two-year mission to assist underserved communities in Mississippi facing the aftermath of the worst natural disaster in U.S. history, and changed the course of his career.
We owe a deep debt of gratitude to our military veterans. These courageous men and women deserve to be appropriately respected for their service. We must ensure that veterans have unimpeded access to medical care, and that opportunities are made available for them to integrate back into the Commonwealth with well-paid jobs.
