The lives of Bill and his wife, Nonie, changed dramatically for the better after viewing the documentary, Forks Over Knives, and, shortly thereafter, Bill read Dr. T. Colin Campbell’s book, The China Study. Before being inspired to transition to a whole food, plant-based diet, Bill’s heart disease prevented him from walking up a steep hill without chest discomfort. Now, he can do it with ease!
Bill’s early work-life focused on theater and horticulture. He then moved into the field of environmental, health, and safety for the next 31 years, with over ten of those years leading regional and global environmental compliance and employee health and safety campaigns.
Bill holds degrees in Theater, Theology, and Health Science. In addition, he has completed certificates in Plant-Based Nutrition, Native Plant Propagation, and Permaculture Design, and is an Advanced Master Gardener.
Upon retirement in 2019, Bill became the co-leader of PEA (Plant-based Eating Advocates) Pod in Bloomington, IN. Although the pandemic has set them back a bit, PEA Pod’s small band of plant-based advocates have continued to be active throughout the pandemic, when weather permits, meeting for picnics, and Zoom get-togethers at other times. PEA Pods current focus is to provide programs, resources, tools, knowledge and support to Group members and general public regarding living a low fat, whole food, plant-based life. Guest speakers have included Nelson Campbell, Founder and President of PlantPure Communities, Samantha Morton, Indiana State Director, Humane Society of United States, and author and PEA Pod co-leader, Glen Merzer.
