In a distant part of the universe, there once was an eager Science student who took great care of lab animals and worked diligently with human samples in the anatomy lab, dreaming of one day running his own research facility. This budding researcher devoted his studies to understanding malaria, household dust mites, and brain tumors, and his work led to several publications. He also spent time lecturing and teaching at a university.

Eventually, Bill, who was then a postdoctoral researcher, decided to switch careers. He became a counselor and helped people grappling with all sorts of issues.

Bill’s passion for maths and science was rekindled and he decided to pursue a teaching qualification. His journey from there was marked by personal milestones, two children, the companionship of six cats, raising a stepdaughter, a few disruptions, regrets, and an adventure in the wilds of Scotland. Bill continues his quest for a fulfilling life at Parkerville Steiner College, where he shares his love for science and mathematics with others.
