About

Hey ya'll...it's me, Corey!
As a proud American, my roots originate from the southern portion of the United States (i.e. Dirty South). I was born in New Orleans and raised in Slidell, LA. As a southern boy, I enjoy warm-sunny days, great food, great music, and great company. I’m a father of a funny and smart teenage boy.
For all of my life, I have been anxious to learn and eager to connect with others. Being a part of something bigger than myself has always been important to me. For that reason, after I graduated high school at the early age of 17 in 2002, I joined ‘The Few, The Proud’ – U.S. Marine Corps. From that point, my perspective on life changed.
Fast forward in time…during my eight years of honorable service in the U.S. Marine Corps (2002-2010), I gained a variety of skills in the Department of Defense (#DoD) business administration and intelligence communities. I traveled the world supporting key-leadership engagements across 13 countries and served in combat zones supporting operations aligned to the Global War on Terrorism in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Equally exciting, I met some really awesome people that I still call friends today. I built self-awareness, self-discipline, and discovered the importance of teamwork, organization, and structure. All of which, helped me establish a foundation for my future.
Because I sought new opportunities to grow, I separated from the elite military force (#SemperFidelis) and pursued endeavors as a contractor-for-hire in the Aerospace and Defense consulting communities. Since then, for the past 12 years, I worked for some of the top DoD consulting companies (e.g. BoozAllenHamilton, CACI, L3, etc.) hired by either the Department of Defense and/or a U.S. Intelligence Agency to service contract-based global requirements. From the ground to space, I became a master in the field of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Collection Management. This required me to become well-versed in the world of data collection, data governance, data management, data analysis, and data reporting.
Unfortunately, the constant deployment rotations in-and-out of foreign countries and war-zones (e.g. Middle-Eastern countries; Afghanistan) took a toll on me. At that moment, I realized I had an opportunity to pivot in my life. As a result, in early 2020, I decided to find healthier ways to apply my diverse knowledge/skills across other business markets. More specifically, I’m developing my personal brand to establish thought leadership in the Business Intelligence (BI) community-of- practice. This will help me support future clients and the brand’s I’m employed by to include benefits for their respective customers/consumers. — GoldenChild BI LLC (#GoldenDataInsights).
