Approach to Wellness

Bill (he/him) feels renewed and refreshed when he is able to do long-distance biking as well as just spending time outside. Being with family and close friends is a great source of pleasure to Bill. He also likes to putter around in his workshop, building things and pretending that he is a carpenter.

Why I Love Hope

Bill greatly values having the opportunity to work with and get to know a wide variety of the amazing students who attend Hope, and he appreciates their courage in sharing parts of their lives with him in the work that they do together. He is also grateful for the wonderful co-workers he has been blessed with, both in CAPS and across campus.
