About Will

​My goal is to help as many young people as possible to grow up to be happy, healthy, and successful. It is my dream to see universal mental healthcare for every child in Canada become a reality in my lifetime. These hopes are the result of working with kids for ten years. My students have been my greatest inspiration and teachers. Thank you, Students.

​

Today, I work as a School Counsellor and serve on the local Social Justice Committee. I have advocated for the past 3 years for children's rights to accessible mental healthcare. This is what led me to join the BC School Counsellors Association (BCSCA) as Publications Chairperson in 2022. I served as the editor of BC Counsellor Magazine for two years, delivering issues focused on Hope, Change, Social Justice, Promotion, and Prevention. In 2024, I was elected as Vice-President - Advocacy of the BCSCA.
