William Castle
MisCon 40 Attending Professional
Hello, my name is Will, I’m a certified personal trainer and lover of all things odd and bizarre. Ive been teaching lightsaber combat and stunt classes for 3 years now, blending my passion for fitness with my passion for fandom. I’ve recently started branching out on social media to discuss other passions such as Magic: The Gathering and gaming culture. I’m hoping to ask good questions and be asked better ones.
