About Will: Howdy, I’m Will L, and I’m a full-time Business student from Toronto studying to become a Professional Accountant. I am also an avid runner, improviser, blogger and a survivor of “The Game” in my former deluded, empty and misguided journey in training to become a “Pick-up Artist” – back when I didn’t know about myself and was insecure around the opposite sex.

Since then, I’ve dropped that deeply disturbing, meaningless and empty pursuit to take on a holistic approach to growth to become self-aware of my strengths and purpose. 

I have grown tremendously as an individual over the last year and dedicated myself to the philosophy of Constant and Never-Ending Improvement.

I created GALVANIZD to be a public record of the challenges in my journey of constant and never-ending improvement, as well writing about social dynamics and deriving meaning in our lives.

Passions: any SickKids Foundation activities, any form of Improvisational Comedy (Improv), Transformers, running, working out, public speaking

Movies: American History X, Being John Malkovich, Big Trouble in Little China, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Gattaca, High Fidelity, The Matrix
