Kali Williams
I was an undergraduate student when I met Bill. At the time, he was managing a microbiology lab alongside a professor with whom I was taking a course, and Bill was instrumental in my understanding of the coursework, suggesting creative ways to not only learn the coursework, but to also get excited about microbiology. His enthusiasm for the sciences stayed true as a member of the Henry Jackson Foundation, where I again came to find that his work ethic, leadership capabilities, and pleasant demeanor were in full force, while working alongside him. He is truly a valuable player -- with energy, analytical know-how, and conscientiousness, any company would be honored to have him as part of its team.
