BILL GAFF

My name is Bill Gaff, I’m 20 years old and I love anything to do with the outdoors.  I enjoy hunting, fishing, wakeboarding, skiing, you name it.  I’m very active and athletic.  I played soccer for 3 years, pole-vaulted for 4 years, and was on the dive/swim team for 4 years.  I was born and raised in Georgia and I have an older brother and an older sister.  I enjoy the outdoors, but my favorite place to be would be the beach or the lake. 

 I’m almost always having fun, but when I’m not, I’m concentrating on school work.  I make sure that I do well in all my classes.  The only classes that I find almost unbearable are my math classes.  Calculus is the devil.  My major is Business, undeclared.  I’m a business major because I want to pursue automotive sales when I graduate.  I already have experience in this area and I loved it. 

 For this team project, I am the Presentation Technologist.  The team has to create a digital video presentation about the IPv6 technology.  As the Presentation Technologist, I am responsible for picking a location to film the presentation, checkout the camera equipment, develop production schedules for the team, and edit the presentation file with the assistance of the Presentation Technology Lab.  I’m also responsible for including group member’s opinions and suggestions.  I make the final submission through the team’s homepage.

 Everyone in team Marmalade helps each other.  My role as Presentation Technologist isn’t necessarily needed until later in the project phase.  However, I offer my help to any member that request it.  I’m able to help with web design, formal writing, and/ research if needed.  I’m a very organized team member and very dependable for assignment completion.
