Speaking, Workshops & Community Events
Financial literacy, discipline, and legacy — delivered by someone who lived the lesson before he taught it.
A story that earns the room’s attention.
Corey speaks from experience rather than theory. He talks about losing everything twice, rebuilding, and the specific habits that made the difference — and then connects it to practical financial decisions the audience can act on.
Sessions are tailored to the audience, whether that’s a middle-school classroom, a church congregation, a nonprofit team, or a business conference.
Rooms that don’t usually get this conversation.
From neighborhood events in St. Louis to schools, churches, and back-to-school gatherings across Houston.
I don’t speak from theory. I speak from having lost it twice and rebuilt anyway — and then I get practical about what to actually do next.
