Bill McWhorter's first acknowledgment in the design world was published in the magazine Interior Design while he was a student of interior design at Ohio State University. He was honored as one of the top graduating students from colleges across the nation. Shortly after entering professional life, he became a member of the A.S.I.D. (American Society of Interior Designers) and has served on the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Chapter for three terms.
In his short speech, Bill talked about his plans and mentioned we all should work hard to let everybody know what ASID is all about. We should spread the "word".
We wish him the best of luck and will help him in any way we can to promote our chapter.
