As WYOMUN VII’s Under-Secretary-General of Social Media and Community Outreach, he plans to greatly expand WYOMUN’s impact outside of the committee room; not only does he envision partnership with a local nonprofit, he also hopes to increase the role of social media throughout the day’s events.

He plays cello in the orchestra, is a drum major for the marching band, and plays guitar in the local rock band sensation Stonefish. Besides music, he is a member of Wyoming’s Political Discourse Club, and also plays tennis. When he wants to relax, Will turns on an episode of Twin Peaks and chows down on a bowl of Chex Mix with his dog Tonka. 
But above all of this, Will is very excited to meet all of you at WYOMUN VII and make it the best day of the year!
