Healthcare and Government Relations with Ray Williams
It is my pleasure to have Ray Williams, Vice President, of Government and Community Affairs at Cancer Treatment Centers of America in the next episode of the podcast. Here is the link to the episode. Ray Williams was born and raised in Montgomery, Alabama. His father was a physician, while his mother was a homemaker. He has four siblings: a twin sister, two older sisters, and an older brother. He attended a military high school in Marion, Alabama, named Marion Military Institute. It’s a family tradition to go there, considering that both his grandfather and father attended the same high school.
It prepared Ray for the challenges he faced as an adult, as a man trying to take care of himself and his family. He went to Huntington College, located in Montgomery, Alabama. Ray’s original dream was to be a coach like his grandfather. It wasn’t until college that he experienced working with the governor of Alabama as an intern.
Ray struggled during the first semester of Business Administration in college, so his academic counselor told him to switch to liberal arts because that is where he suits the most. Moving to liberal arts opened Ray’s eyes to other futures and careers that he could pursue with a history background.
What led Ray to pursue a career in the field of political science?
What were his life experiences after college?
How did Ray enter the field of Healthcare?
Check out Ray Williams as he shares his journey in this new episode of State Lobbying Heroes.
