Forging a Career from Lifelong Passions
The first time you talk with Timothy Corey, he’ll quickly share the two great passions that have influenced his life’s work—a lifelong love of art and a natural ability to lead groups. It’s a unique blending of skills that led him down an evolving career path in graphic recording and facilitation.
Early Influences Begin to Emerge
The power art was apparent to Tim even as a young boy. He recalls his mother taking him to city hall to see a display of artwork that he’d made with fellow first grade students. He was deeply touched by the experience, realizing artwork was much more than something that just hung on a wall. Even then he saw that art with a purpose could both inform and inspire a community.
Little did 7-year-old Tim know that one day he would discover graphic recording and other methodologies that use images, words and colors to help groups make phenomenal leaps in their thinking.
On the other hand, Tim’s natural ease with facilitating groups might be partly owed to genetics. His father was a teacher and a facilitator, and it felt very natural for Tim follow in his footsteps. For 20 years, Tim tapped those skills to serve human service organizations supporting people with disabilities.
Everything Comes Together
