Brad Thompson
Brad has been working in the youth mentoring and talent development space for over 15 years. After a disappointing stint in the classroom, he found his true calling in youth development & education work outside of school settings.
As the Executive Director of the Wabi Center for Youth Development, Brad is dedicated to supporting and amplifying the work of others in this field and making sure that our programs have the organizational & administrative support that they need to thrive.
Brad has a Computer Science degree from Purdue, and when he's not working for us or doing other youth development work he can usually be found running his software & IT consulting agency Sledgehammer Infosystems, reading, or attempting to make art.
