William Creech:  

My story, eh? Well - grab your popcorn and soda and start reading. After graduation, I moved to Oahu and surfed and played. Then moved to Orange County down by South Coast Plaza and worked building race car bodies. Started back to school at RCC and played football there. You may remember the 50s diner Herbie K's? I was the infamous Moondoggie at that joint - hehe. Left school in 1989 with my AA and moved to L.A. with my would be wife, Shelly Rosenlof (Arlington '81). Got married to Shelly in 1990 (yep - still married) and moved back to Riverside. Had an adventurous 6 years and when my oldest was born in 1994 I decided to wind down the dangerous gig and become respectable. Fall 1995 returned to RCC to update some classes and Spring 96 had an AS degree. Went to University of La Verne 96-97 and earned a BS degree in Business with a minor in Finance. Summer 97 youngest daughter born and we moved to Ithaca, NY to attend Cornell University and earn my MBA. During my time there, I spent a summer in Detroit with Ford Motor Company. Finished the MBA in 1999 and moved to NorCal (still here) with professional gigs at Hewlett Packard, Senior Executive role at FSP (small company), and now a Sr. Mgr. role with Sun Microsystems (still there). Bill - Cornell?!?! Creecher at an Ivy League school?!?! No way!?!?! I heard this more than once. But yes - me. Turns out, I'm actually pretty smart, I just got sidetracked every now and then at Poly with the football, motocross, and cavorting around. I was a competitive bodybuilder, but got hurt right before a contest in 2001 - blew my knee very badly. Since then I've had 5 major surgeries and discovered Circus Animal Cookies and Cheetoh's - there's no going back from that black hole let me tell ya!!! My wife is a Hollywood make-up artist for movies and TV. I'm sure most of you have seen her work. She does do special effects as well...Expand for more
