COD AMS Vice President: John Wills Major: Meteorology Focus in Field: Undecided Since I was little I have always been fascinated by weather and living in Chicago all my life, my passion was fueled by watching Tom Skilling every chance I got. I remember reading his article in the Chicago tribune every morning before school. In high school I formed a facebook group to make my own weather forecasts public. In 2009 I enrolled at COD and immediately got into the meteorology program which took my passion for weather to a whole new level. I went on my first storm chase with the school that spring and have been chasing and spotting ever since. This year I was determined to get more involved and run for office. I was elected Treasurer of the COD AMS which has been a great experience. My plans are to leave the club in an even better position than when I was elected. I plan to graduate with my associates of science in May of 2012. This will allow me to choose between the University of Oklahoma and Northern Illinois University to earn my bachelor's degree. I'm not positive what focus I will choose for my career at this time, however I would like to get my master's and eventually my Ph. D. in meteorology. Outside of weather I enjoy nature photography, watching and playing sports, and staying in shape.
