She prefers being called Corrie and likes her coffee with cream and sugar. She is a single mom who is successfully raising a teenage son, working a full-time job, plus a good side job, and still makes time for some fascinating passions and hobbies.
What can you tell us about your work?
In my official capacity as Community Standards Coordinator for a homeowner’s association, I help enforce rules and protect property values and aesthetics. In my side job as Independent Senior Beauty Consultant for Mary Kay, I help empower people to care for their skin and earn extra income.
What are your greatest strengths?
I love meeting new people and treating each one with transparency, kindness, and respect. I am very resilient while helping others to gain confidence. By increased networking and stepping out of my comfort zone I’ve made many wonderful new friends.
What are your thoughts on travel?
Wisconsin is where I grew up and would love to revisit one day. I recently visited Providence Canyon State Park in Lumpkin, Georgia. That is a fun and absolutely gorgeous place. Alaska is a place that seems to be calling me to come see it for the first time. Tallahassee has great nature trails and hidden gems like Lichgate or Lafayette Park. Plus, it is near the coast and who doesn’t need a little beach therapy now and then? A walk in the woods or some sitting by the sea helps charge my creative batteries.
What hobbies and passions do you enjoy?
My teenage son wants to become a marine biologist and I share his love for reading and science. My interests run from bartending to histology to tattoos. I like classic rock of the 70’s and also 90’s rock. I love abstract art and one of my favorite foods is eggplant. I enjoy painting old, discarded flowerpots, and breathing new life into them. Volunteer work with local animal rescue groups is the other thing that I find deeply rewarding.
What makes you an exuberant person?
Coffee first, please! Then paying attention to details, having adventures, and learning new things. I can find the smallest silver lining in any situation and that allows me to make the best from all kinds of circumstances.
Do you have a message to share with the world?
Treat others as you wish to be treated and make the world a better place. Just be yourself. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for doing what makes you happy!
