William Pykus, NAR, BHA, AASME, President of Rainbow Consultants, Inc and Health Resources

William has been involved with the company since inception twelve years ago. Although a mechanical designer by trade, his heart has always been with the elderly and disabled. In fact, at one time, he considered switching majors and becoming a nurse. He has been instrumental in the writing of the programs and more so in the formatting and distribution of the continuing education and direct advertising. Bill has had experience as a caregiver many times in the venue of boarding homes, adult family homes, and transition homes.
