In addition to the financial services industry, Bill has also found success in the security industry. In 2001, he co-founded US Security Systems, a California-based minority-owned business Certified SBE by the State of California, that rapidly expanded its footprint throughout eight states.
The company developed strategic alliances with national security companies such as, West Tech Security and ADT to expand its footprint and offer a range of security services including CCTV, Interactive voice-on command monitoring, access control, and alarm systems.
Bill was described by his 30-year mentor in equipment finance this way: “He knows both sides of the deal blending credit & marketing effortlessly creating a win-win environment for all involved in the deal. He is a master dealmaker who has the extraordinary ability to place himself in the other person’s shoes creating a balance between lessee and credit, which provided a perspective that only results in satisfied clients.” Tom Cannon White Hall Capital Advisors, LLC.
Bill attended Pepperdine University, holds a California Real-Estate License, plays golf, and has a daughter who is a graduate of USC, that is the air that he breathes.
