He works closely with chefs around the world, leading the way in culinary innovation for sustainably farming seaweeds and reducing food waste.

Will attended Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, for Tibetan Buddhism and eco-sustainability, studying wilderness survival under Richard Dart, herbalism under Brigitte Mars, and Tibetan Buddhism under Reginald "Reggie" Ray. He began pursuing his professional cooking career at the Culinary School of the Rockies and Johnson & Wales University in 2004. In 2012, Will and his sister, Julie Horowitz, opened Ducks Eatery. In 2015, they opened a vintage-inspired delicatessen and provisions shop called Harry & Ida's Meat and Supply Co.
