Cory has been impacting the GitHub team for over five years now. As an Engineering advocate and catalyst, Cory builds, grows, and leads Engineering Teams. He's intrigued by building something from the ground up, by building a startup in the walls of a traditional mid-to-large size organization, and revitalizing/rehabbing teams that have lost their way. Cory believes that culture and connectedness are essential components of a healthy organization.

Cory is aspirational and practical; years of experience have shown him that people can grow while being proud of where they're at. He believes that an organization's greatest opportunity for differentiation is in the people they hire and the degree to which they encourage autonomy and action.
