Will grew up between the mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee, developing a love for the outdoors along with a passion for writing and music. After high school, he moved to Washington, D.C., to pursue a degree in international relations, inspired by his foreign language studies and travels abroad. However, following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Will faced challenges with depression and addiction. After several years, he made the decision to seek help and came to Portland, Maine, to begin his recovery at Foundation House.

At Foundation House, Will quickly immersed himself in the program, rediscovering his passions while building confidence in his sobriety. This transformative experience led him to realize how much he enjoyed helping others—a passion that has become integral to his recovery and personal growth.

After completing his residency, Will joined the Foundation House team, where he leverages his professional skills gained from previous roles in customer service and community engagement. He is dedicated to cultivating strong interpersonal relationships and supporting residents in their journeys.
