Bill Protzmann

Bill Protzmann, has an extensive, customer-facing history of excellence in his dual careers as an information technology entrepreneur and performing musician/impresario, he has also published two books: “In Our Eyes In Our Words – Portraits from the Edge of Society,” and “More Than Human – The Value Of Cultivating The Human Spirit In Your Organization.” Bill also collaborates with the San Diego Symphony to provide Veterans, Military, Guard, Reserves, and their friends and families with more than 5,000 no- cost “honor tickets” to Symphony concerts. Bill is a living example of how music can be life-saving and life-affirming. In addition to running a Meetup group for people who often think about suicide, he has taught the principles of music as self-care to people ranging from at-risk Veterans to corporate executives, and was recognized for this work in 2014 by the National Council for Behavioral Health with an Award of Excellence, the behavioral health equivalent of winning an Oscar.
