• Devezin, Executive Director

    Adrian founded Empowr because of his own experiences in the education system. From a young age, he was tossed aside in the education system. He was led to believe that the school system wasn’t for him. He ended up dropping out of college. While working a retail job, Adrian taught himself how to code and eventually landed a job as a software developer. Today, he’s building Empowr to help Black youth access educational opportunities in tech that weren’t available to him. With technology at the core of Empowr’s solution, Adrian’s mission is to create tech career pathways for Black students.
