About Will Thompson
I’m a senior at Saint Joseph’s University pursuing a career in Human Resources with a passion for optimizing talent to create high-performing workplace and inclusive cultures. My hands-on experience includes program coordination, volunteer recruitment and training, employee support, and event planning, skills that translate directly into talent development, employee engagement, and diversity and inclusion initiatives. As Community Partner Coordinator for a university–Title I school partnership, I collaborated with leadership teams to design and implement mentoring programs, train volunteers, and ensure ethical, safe, and impactful experiences. As a Neurodiversity Support Intern, I worked closely with management to create workplace adaptations and self-advocacy strategies for employees with autism, strengthening productivity. I thrive in environments where relationship-building, problem-solving, and organizational skills come together to make a measurable difference.
