Billy was born on August 09, 1988 and was a beloved son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin and friend.  He graduated from Jack Britt High School in 2006 and studied Engineering at N.C. State University.  Ever curious and smart, he loved tinkering with things in order to find out how they worked.  This talent would lead to his current position at Apple, providing end user support.  In his spare time, you may find him working on a car, trying to figure a way to make it better.  Billy had a talent for figuring a way to get just about anything working again.
