Hi! My name is Bill, and I live in "sunny" Portland, OR. I was born on April 16th 1964 (you do the math), and I have a wide variety of interests. I have been
involved in Fencing as a hobby since 1983, when I was attending community college and needed a P.E. credit. I've been
foiling around ever since.  I have been teaching fencing at Reed College since 1990, and have been studying other forms of swordfighting on and off for the last several years.

In 1995, after falling asleep at the wheel of my car, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea, and after that, narcolepsy.
Having narcolepsy has been difficult to deal with, and I am amazed at God's sense of humor. On the one hand, I have a disease that
make you uncontrollably drowsy (narcolepsy), and when I do fall asleep, I stop breathing. (sleep apnea)

I share an apartment in Ridgefield, WA with my best friend Claudia, my roomate Angela (Picture forthcoming), m cat Natasha Kittensky (Named for the actress in the movie "Cat People".), Claudia's Cat Sasha, Angela's cat Mijo, Lola (a 40+ year-old parrot) and our dog Samantha.

Pictures of some of my sword collection can be found in the Armory.  Lots of sharp objects!!  (Hehhehheh...)
