Mount Pleasant, SC
My name is Adrian Wilson. I am a native Charlestonian born and raised in the creeks and marshes of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. I’m an alumnus of Wando High School (Mount Pleasant, SC) and also the University of South Carolina (Columbia, SC) where I graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Anatomy and Physiology from the Arnold School of Public Health.
I’ve spent my entire adult life working for a private nonprofit company called the National Urban League. I started my career at the Urban League in Columbia, SC where I served as Senior Manager of Operations. I was responsible for procuring and managing more than $3,000,000 worth of Federal funding annually. The programs that I operated were geared towards youth training and youth employment. Before I left there in 2009 we were the largest youth employer in the state of South Carolina, employing more than 5,000 children in 16 different counties annually. Currently, I serve in the same capacity for the Charleston affiliate.
