Bill Bradley graduated from Concordia Lutheran High School in Fort Wayne and holds a B.A. from Purdue University and an M.P.A. from Ball State University. He began his career nearly 38 years ago as the first manager of the New Allen Alliance. From there, he served as the first Executive Director of the Adams County Economic Development Corporation, then became President of the Logansport/Cass County Economic Development Foundation.
He later returned east to Wabash, where he worked extensively on the U.S. 24 Hoosier Heartland Highway project. Bradley then moved north to Elkhart County to help launch and grow a new countywide economic development initiative. He spent the next 12 years in Jay County (Portland and Dunkirk) in east-central Indiana, an area to which he has strong ties and concluded his full-time career with four years in LaGrange County.
Bill Bradley is pleased to serve part-time with the City of New Haven, focusing on building and maintaining relationships with the local business community.
