Meet Dev Thompson
We Outside: Legacy Builder Member Spotlight
Dev Thompson is a storyteller and creative whose work moves between personal narrative and collective memory, creating space for expression and connection.
Dev first stepped into We Outside with a screening of his film Brown Boy and has since added new layers of connection, new ways of sharing, and new contexts for the relationship he already had with the outdoors.
“I’m honored to be part of this community. It’s been nothing but pleasure. It’s become a place to educate myself, learn my own history, and put my people on.”
