Corey traveled alongside his parents most of his childhood due to his father being in the military. Amidst all of his travels, Corey gave his life to the Lord and was baptized as a youth. At a young age, Corey was noticeably intelligent and was an avid reader, who began his educational journey attending several schools throughout the states. After graduating from Palm Bay High School, he continued his education at several universities, such as Brevard Community College, Florida Memorial University (Miami) and St. Thomas University (Miami). Corey then decided to follow in his father's footsteps and joined the United States Army. After discharging from the military, he pursued his Bachelor's Degree at Barry University. He then attended Florida Institute of Technology, and received his Master's Degree in Master of Education. Corey had always been intrigued by learning different languages and exploring different cultures. One of his more recent accomplishments included joining the Pi Lambda Phi Brotherhood, which he look much pride in. Corey also tutored at FIT. Although Corey spent a lot of his time pursuing his education, which was a huge inspiration to his brother and sisters, he still found time to enjoy life. If he was not fishing with siblings, he was enjoying brunch with his mother. Shortly after receiving his Master's Degree, he began working as a juvenile probation officer at the Department of Juvenile Justice in Titusville, FL.
