In 2000, his second year of college at Ole Miss, Will got his insurance license and began selling Medicare Supplements for United American. His first month in the insurance business resulted in his placement in the top 20 of insurance agents in weekly production with United American.

During these two years he would become Unit Manager through National Consultants where he recruited other Ole Miss students into the health insurance field.

Overseeing the recruiting, training and managing of the captive shop he brought American Eagle Consultants recognition in 2004,2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009 with United American through their Presidents and Eagle awards.
