About the Author

Bill Bailey is a U.S. Army veteran, entrepreneur, and the founder and President of Rapier Solutions, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business. His four decades of leadership in government contracting, cybersecurity, and technical innovation reflect a life shaped by discipline, faith, and resilience.

But behind the accolades lies a story of survival.

Born in Detroit, Bill’s early years were marked by trauma, adversity, and premature responsibility. The military offered structure, entrepreneurship provided purpose, and through faith and self-reflection, he found healing. When COVID-19 halted his life's momentum, it also broke open the silence around his pain—revealing the foundation for something new.

In This Is My New Foundation, Bill shares his journey with raw honesty, giving voice to those who've carried silent pain and offering a roadmap for those ready to begin again.

He lives in North Carolina with his wife and family, continuing to mentor others through leadership, service, and truth.
