Ed Wolverton
Ed Wolverton works with a board of directors and local government officials to promote the economic growth and development of downtown Wilmington.
He uses technology to gain new information and organize his schedule. “To expand our economic development reach,
WDI recently subscribed to online services that can provide data with a few keystrokes. Not that long ago, the same type of information would take months of work to compile and interpret,” he said.

Wolverton is a fan of all the
Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. “It is fun how they have weaved an interconnected storyline through more than 20 different films.”
A favorite app is
