Sessions of 2026 Connection Conference: William (Bill) Conroy
Conroy, William (Bill), JR
Marketing Teacher
SVUSD - Buena High School
I’m a Marketing & Entrepreneurship teacher at Buena High School in Sierra Vista. I’ve grown up in Sierra Vista and make it home with my wife. After graduating from Buena, I went to University of Arizona, bought a pet store, turned that into two and opened 2 restaurants. I loved DECA in high school and my old marketing teacher convinced me to get a CTE certificate and start teaching. Getting to do cool DECA stuff with bright motivated students has kept me teaching longer than I thought I would have.

Learn classroom workflows, template strategies, and tips for teaching design basics without overwhelming students. The session also covers collaboration features, brand kits, and common design mistakes that impact judge perception. Participants will leave with practical ideas and examples for integrating Adobe Express into DECA prep efficiently and effectively.
