Will graduated with a BS in Industrial and Systems Engineering and a Masters in Business Administration from the University of Alabama Huntsville.

Why Aptus?
“After working through an acquisition, the timing was perfect to join Aptus. I enjoy helping identify constraints and simplifying the complex issues of the business. Working with advisors to help solve their business needs, and even making the daunting task of transitioning (changing!) their business an enjoyable process, gives me energy every day. Getting to do this on a team of high-character individuals who focus on things larger than ourselves is a privilege I don’t take for granted.”
