At St Andrews, Will was head of his class for the archaeology department, as well as President of the Student Archaeological Society. Will worked around Europe, including in Italy and Greece. He was accepted for a Masters in Archaeology at the University of Oxford but decided to pursue his passion for the law in Ontario.

Will has had the privilege of assisting the United Nations with research, particularly regarding the war in Ukraine.

Will has also been involved with several Charitable Organizations such as Me to We and Childreach International. Both experiences took him to Tanzania, and his efforts were rewarded with the ultimate experience of successfully climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro.

In his spare time Will enjoys supporting our Toronto sports teams, specifically the Maple Leafs, and has a soft spot for the New England Patriots.
