Bill Aronson is a familiar face in the BHC community . You’ll see him at film screenings and other social events. He is a tennis professional with years of coaching experience around the world and locally.

Bill started playing tennis when he was a kid attending Indian Acres Camp in Fryeburg, Maine. “I tell people how I got involved in tennis is that my parents stayed out of it,” he said. He earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Utah, a masters and a certificate of advanced graduate study from Springfield College in counseling and counseling athletes, an MBA from Plymouth State University and a PhD in psychology from California School of Professional Psychology-Fresno.

He served in the Air Force as a psychologist, at the rank of captain, and has taught sports psychology and human growth and development in several universities as an adjunct professor. He has also worked and coached at home and abroad, including Chile, Uruguay, Venezuela, Argentina, Cuba, Jamaica, Dominica, Australia, Thailand, Malaysia, England, Israel and Brazil.

Bill has lived in the Miami area for nearly 30 years, summering in the North Country and attending various BHC events. People may also know him from the Profile Club and other local sporting organizations.

Bill bought a home in Colebrook last fall and is eager to spend more time at BHC, despite the long drive to get to Bethlehem.
