Fueled by black coffee

Corey is a dedicated and driven creative strategist who cracks the whip at Departika. He has a diverse background in account and brand planning, creative strategy, marketing and management. His expertise comes from his education in business management and marketing as well as his formative experiences in the agency world at The Marlin Network and at Noble Communications. He has worked and led strategy and execution with national brands such as Nestle, United States Gypsum and Tyson while being based in offices in both Springfield, Missouri and Chicago, Illinois.

Corey is a die hard human, slightly dorky and diseased with curiosity. He is a trends and culture junky, a web addict, a lover of an eclectic mix of music, and a “retired” DJ. When he's not riding a skateboard or climbing rocks, he can be found hanging out with his wife Katie and their two fat dogs, Kira and Anya. Corey brings his expertise to Departika with the intensity and passion of a kung-fu master.
