Bill is extremely excited to combine his passion for creative problem solving and mission to help people living with neurological conditions, in this new partnership. 

Bill has had a successful career leading global teams across product and service design, development, manufacturing and supply chain, logistics and more. Working in broad array of industries from consumer household goods through automotive and electronics and space, has afforded Bill a broad technical background and the tools to lead teams to solve complex technical and consumer problems. These teams and organizations have gone onto exceptional commercial success while the uniqueness and effectiveness of the solutions have brought protection resulting in numerous utility patents.

Bill was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2012 and Bill’s father was diagnosed in 2015. Bill’s paternal grandfather may also have had Parkinson’s.

Bill has made it his life mission to help people with neurological diseases live their best lives possible and Lotus Innovations will be an important part of that.
