Corey has spent more than 30 years behind the chair and has built a career around service. He produces live education events for hairstylists and creates spaces where people feel supported, encouraged, and challenged to grow. His work with Hair Aid, where stylists teach haircutting skills to people in crisis and communities in need, pushed his commitment to service even deeper and shaped his belief that education can change a life.
Corey speaks often about curiosity, emotional regulation, and the lessons he learned growing up. His message connects with anyone who wants to let go of old belief systems and step into a clearer version of themselves. He draws from his own journey with loss, fatherhood, sobriety, and the shift from reacting to responding.
Corey lives in Maryland with his family and hosts three annual education events. He believes your story can change someone’s day and that generosity is a daily practice.
