"Corey is a conscientious collaborator, capable of offering a fresh perspective while thoroughly weighing the input of his teammates. Working with Corey over an extended period, I've been able to witness his ability to cultivate a clear voice for our client, staying authentic to the brand's vision while elevating the customer experience. Open to feedback and independently minded, Corey augments our team's value, no matter the scope of the work."

Amy Corcoran Hunt
Lead Copywriter
Rapid 7

"In the age of way too much 'bang the copy out,' Corey is fiercely intelligent, thoughtful, and asks the right questions. And no, it doesn't mean you have to wait longer. If anything, it means his work ends up being faster to the finish line. Light on strategy? Corey can add to it. Need a cool, persuasive voice to the client? He's got it. And while writing is a blissfully individual act, you can also count on him for the must-have skill of easy collaboration."

From a designer perspective, Corey is a great collaborator and partner to have on client work. He is easy to work with, is very thoughtful about the intention behind the work, and all around demonstrates thought leadership in his craft.

"Corey was the person you would see at work when you came in; having already been there for a good while, working. It was effortless for him to navigate the various personalities that exist within the creative departments (and some of them are extreme and quirky) at agencies. He had solid ideas. He was always there to help others. He was loyal. He was dependable. He produced, always. And on top of all of that, he was hilarious and positive to work with all of the time." 

Emily Peterson

Mind+Matter

"Corey is the kind of coworker whom everyone hopes to work with—smart, competent, good-natured, and practical. He perpetually seeks ways to work more efficiently and benefit his team, and he never loses sight of the broader goals. Furthermore, Corey is a thoughtful and empathetic friend, which is arguably the most important characteristic a teammate can have. It was a privilege to work with Corey, and it has been a privilege to continue to call him a friend since."

"I very much enjoyed working with Corey and would relish the opportunity to do so again. It is always a pleasure to work with a Creative Director with such an extensive background in copy. His talent is especially apparent in the kick-off. He knows exactly how much information you need to get started but perhaps most importantly, he knows what to exclude. He allows his writers to explore the territory with a certain amount of freedom, freedom that I feel usually invites better results."

"Corey is an excellent writer and thorough editor. He is professional in all aspects and is extremely timely. He provides regular updates on his progress and is involved actively in the process."

"Corey speaks soft and carries a big pen. Or keyboard, if you will. He is quick, courteous, always meets deadlines and extremely thorough in his research for any assignment."

Jack McNamara
Associate Creative Director, Copywriter

"As a senior colleague to staff on a junior level, Corey is absolutely indispensable. He invests his time in juniors. He provides them with his experience and keeps morale high. Greater standards can be expected of less experienced staff when Corey is in the building." 

Jonathan Restaino
Vice President, Content Design
Fidelity

"Exceptionally creative, versatile in voice, and an intelligent sense of humor are key elements of a great copywriter, especially the last characteristic. Corey personifies each of these, and has done so on multiple projects we have worked on together throughout the years. With an ability to deliver strong conceptual creative as well as understanding complex marketing initiatives, he has shown a resourcefulness and in depth knowledge within multiple industries such as healthcare, online retail, consumer goods, and tech products...no easy task for one writer. Whatever the media, clients and teammates are consistently happy with Corey's creative contributions. I highly recommend Corey to any client or project who is seeking a targeted approach while working with a dedicated professional."

Beth Shea Palmer

I collaborated with Corey on a website redesign where we needed to translate jargony complex subjects into scannable plain language. Corey approached the work with intention and was very engaged and thoughtful. He's an excellent wordsmith, intelligent copywriter, and supportive colleague.

Ann Thorpe

"During the time I worked with Corey I remember him most of all for how smart and engaging he was. Two things you need in order to succeed in the advertising world. Corey understands the business of conceptual ideas for his clients." 

Sam Ellison

"Working with Corey was a ray of sardonic sunshine on a long slog of a project. He's a very skilled writer, but what made working with Corey great is his willingness to help the other writers on the team. It was a big team, but Corey was always around to offer words of wisdom, encouragement, and snark to help us get through the day - and make our work better in the process. Corey helped me think about things differently, and made a group of freelancers feel welcome at a pretty quiet agency. I'd work with him again in a heartbeat."

Ron Elliott

"Corey’s greatest strength? He’s “intellectually nimble.” Now, what the heck does that mean? Bumping into Corey at the coffee machine is never boring. I’ve always found that, even if it’s just small talk, conversations with Corey always make me think. Corey’s right there with you, no matter what conversational tangent you take. And he’ll add an insight that catches you by surprise and changes the conversation in an unexpected way. When I proofread Corey’s work, I always noted how he applied that intellectual nimbleness to produce insightful, agile, innovative copy." 

Emily Davis
Account Director
RAPP

"Corey is amazing to work with. His writing is well-thought-out, creative, and concise. He is quick to understand our client's industry and brand tone. He also helps with proactive content recommendations, elevating the brand's leadership positioning. He is truly interested in the brand's success." 

Rory Nolan 
Senior Copywriter
Matter Communications

"I worked with Corey a few years ago and always found him to be a supportive, encouraging colleague. He was ever-helpful and caring, enthusiastic to aid in project questions or personal issues. Corey has a quick mind and wisdom that would be an asset to any agency that would have him."
