She started her company, Shift People Development, with the mission to help professionals build meaningful careers and companies create happy, engaging workplaces.  With expertise in leadership, emotional intelligence, and personal branding, Corina delivers keynotes, presentations, and interviews on how we can all leverage what makes us unique to be better leaders and parents!

In 2015 she was named as one of the Top 50 Leaders Under 40 in Atlantic Canada by 21 Inc. In her downtime Corina enjoys heading to the beach with her husband and son where they have competitions to find the best skipping rocks!

 

About my kids: 

I am the proud mom of a creative, curious six year old boy named Dylan. Dylan loves going to the beach and learning about the many creatures that live beneath the ocean. He is also a big fan of the Paw Patrol and could probably survive on peanut butter sandwiches alone!

Parenting is...: 

an amazing journey of love, learning, and exhaustion!

We know you don't have a lot, but when you do, what do you like to do in your spare time?: 

In my spare time I like to pour a glass of red wine and read some Brené Brown or Liz Gilbert! A girl's night out is also on the menu once in a while.

When are you at your yummiest?: 

When I forget about all of the 'shoulds' and do what my heart is telling me to do...head to the beach!
