Bill has a degree in Mathematics with a major in Computer Science from the University of Waterloo in Canada. In addition to leveraging his background in sales to motivate and inspire more extroverted groups (e.g. sales and marketing), Bill's Mathematics degree and technical background give him credibility and shared experience when he speaks to groups that are more analytical in nature (Financial, IT, Engineering, etc).
