Billy Anton

Chair Emeritus

Billy Anton joined the PCD Foundation Board of Directors in 2016 after several years of volunteer service. What began as a personal quest to better understand PCD evolved into a lasting commitment to supporting the community and collaborating with others who share a passion for the cause. He currently serves as Chair Emeritus of the Board. Billy holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Management and Sales Leadership from the Driehaus College of Business at DePaul University in Chicago.

After graduating in 2014, Billy joined his family’s business, Rahco Rubber—a custom rubber molding company—where he has taken on multiple leadership roles, including Operations Manager. He now resides in Arlington Heights, IL.

Billy is one of two siblings in his family with PCD. His sister, Molly, also has the disease, though their symptoms differ significantly. While Billy manages severe lung disease and moderate sinusitis, Molly has primarily experienced sinus-related issues with minimal lung involvement. Their experiences underscore the broad spectrum of symptoms and severity associated with PCD.
