      A profile piece:
The life of Will Feimer


                  Will Feimer fears working with his dad the rest of his life.  His father owns a big computer software company where Will takes care of a’lot of the paper work that goes into the company by working at one of the front desks.  At first, that could be looked at as a bad thing, but it isn’t because it is what keeps him motivated.  He has become a very determined and motivated 21 year old from Westbury since his school transfer just 6 months ago.  Will attended college at SUNY Albany for a year before he decided that being there wasn’t his best decision for his future.  “The party life got the best of me, and I realized I needed to get back on my feet and focus on my schoolwork,” said Will, who is now attending SUNY Old Westbury pursuing a degree in Media and Communications.  Will mentions that he used to go to bed past 4 A.M. when he had to be awake for class by 8 A.M., which he would have to miss often.  It is a great sign to see the seriousness in his face when he says he is so happy that all of that is now behind him and he was able to transfer to a school close to home allowing him to stay on top of the important things. It is evident that Will is hungry for success by the seriousness in the way he talks about wanting to help his dads company as much as he can while he is employed by his company.  Will thrives off of the learning experiences while working with his dad because he knows his dad is always on top of him and is quick to call him out when need be.  With authenticity in his voice, Will mentioned that working with family could be good and bad, but that he likes to focus on what his dad teaches him because he is giving him the skills he will need to be his own boss and run his own company one day. Will talks with his hands, which is always a good sign for someone pursing a communications degree and plan to run their own business.  Will is very unique because it is evident that he strives for big success but also enjoys his lazy time spending it with his girlfriend and family.  With time and constant hard work Will will reach his goals and become the man he has worked and strived to become.
