Adam Mathews is the programming coordinator for the WUDL. A policy debater in Washington, DC, from 8th-12th grade, Adam helped to coach his high school team while simultaneously competing. He credits debate with helping him develop his confidence, strengthen his voice, and shape the way he sees the world. As a result, he is passionate about expanding access to debate while helping coaches, volunteers, and new generations of debaters to grow and succeed. 

Adam graduated from Old Dominion University with a B.S. in Communication Studies. He has experience in event management, strategic planning, and media relations. He is excited to use these skills, amongst others, to the benefit of the WUDL
