Bill started his real estate career as an executive in Jacksonville, soon moving to Long Island to work at Levitt & Sons, where he oversaw the construction of many thousands of houses in the New York and Washington D.C. areas.

 From 1971 to 1976, Bill worked in the heavy construction business as president of the Arundel Corp in Baltimore, MD. He was later involved in various construction development businesses. He built and operated office buildings, hotels, and apartments. Bill proudly served on many boards over the years. His greatest passion and pride was his family.
