Will began his acting career at just seven years old, starring alongside Oscar® winner Anne Bancroft in The Homecoming. Despite graduating from the prestigious National Theatre School of Canada in 2010, he left the toxic environment of acting behind and moved to Spain, where he discovered a new passion for teaching English.
This newfound love for education led Will to co-found a startup in China and eventually, in 2017, he launched OutLoud Speakers School. Now, he empowers entrepreneurs and executives with essential public speaking and communication skills. Will has shared his expertise with prestigious companies like Google, Wayfair, Boston Dynamics, TechStars, Founder Institute, and Ericsson, coaching over 4,500 individuals worldwide.

Recognized as a Top Public Speaking Voice on LinkedIn and nominated for “Newcomer of the Year” by the Speaker Awards, Will is also hailed as “Canada’s best pitch coach” by Jordan Jocius of Founder Institute Waterloo.
