William Pounds served as the campaign manager of former Governor Jesse Ventura's 2020 Presidential Campaign. A seasoned political strategist and researcher, Pounds has worked closely with former U.S. Representative Cynthia McKinney, helping shape policy proposals and grassroots efforts. Currently, he collaborates with Dr. V.A. Shiva Ayyadurai—the inventor of email—in a bid to see him elected President in 2028.

Born in Casa Grande, Arizona, and now based in Tempe, William holds a Bachelor of Science in Political Science and an Associate of Arts in Economics. His academic background informs his analytical approach to politics, while his hands-on experience in national campaigns has sharpened his ability to navigate complex ideological landscapes.

William writes to move the hearts of men toward a more compassionate direction, believing that sustainable progress arises when empathy transcends partisan divides. In Pax Abundantia, he draws on years of strategic insight and personal conviction to invite readers into a vision of unity-driven governance—one where policy and principle converge to enrich lives across the political spectrum. He ran for Arizona Governor in 2022 as an Independent-Green when his major party opponent Kari Lake wanted to debate him and he is running again in 2026 as a Green.
