Andre Brown YUPRO Placement

Andre – Program Manager


Andre is a graduate and pioneer of Year Up Philadelphia Class 1 where he served on the local leadership boards and was the President of the Philadelphia Alumni Association.  After completing Year Up Andre spent several years at JPMC as a Project Manager before transitioning into Workforce Development.  Andre is also the founder of his own nonprofit called Thorough Inc. which is focused on men’s empowerment geared to help individuals obtain the guidance to be successful in their personal lives.  Joining YUPRO Placement was the perfect move for Andre as he shares the same passion as the company, which is to ensure that talent will not be overlooked and that everyone is awarded a fair chance to make an impact.  Andre takes pride in helping individuals find opportunities to provide for themselves and their families, just as Year Up did for him.
