We live in an age of influence. Between YouTube, social media and 24/7 media, kids are constantly being influenced by outside sources.
As a parent, Corrie was worried about her child’s choice to look up to reality stars and celebrities, rather than to figures who are making a difference in the world. She wanted to show them all the amazing people that were out there making the world a better place and the internal skills that they needed to pursue their passion (persistence, resilience, compassion, etc).
Now that her kids are teens and tired of hearing these stories from her (insert eye roll), she thought she should share them with the rest of the world and hope together we can build a generation of well rounded contributors of social good.
Corrie is a mom to 2 amazing teens, an educator and entrepreneur. She has a degree in elementary education and worked in the school system for several years before catching the entrepreneurial bug. Corrie is a graduate of the Launch accelerator program at UNC which helped make Wonder Crate a reality! In her spare time she mentors kid entrepreneurs through the Young Founders Institute.
