Wil Hoffman is a Springfield Native and recent graduate of Ohio University. Having achieved a degree in Communication Studies with a concentration in the Performing Arts, it wasn’t until a screenwriting class that he became aware of his interest in writing.

In his spare time he enjoys golf and exploring the nature trails of the area, when it's warm enough, and enjoying the numerous live music acts from the region when it's cooler.
