President & Chief Executive Officer
Hope Rises International (formerly American Leprosy Mission)
Bill has been the CEO of national and international organizations in the for-profit and nonprofit world for well over two decades. Since 2010 he has served as President and CEO of Hope Rises International, formerly American Leprosy Missions, which was founded in 1906.
He has been blessed to lead many boards and organizations around the world and most recently began serving as chair of the board for the Accord Network. His experience running Christian ministry organizations for his entire career, coupled with a life-altering three-month sabbatical experience a few years ago, has shaped his desire to write and think about the role of spiritual formation in Christian parachurch ministries.
Bill and his wife Cindi live in Greenville, SC. Bill graduated from the University of Tennessee with a BA in Political Science and is pursuing postgraduate work in spiritual formation at Gordon–Conwell Theological Seminary. His new book, “The Way of Interruption” releases March 18, 2025.
