Corey is the editor, designer, writer, and producer of IntegralLife.com. He is also a freelance writer, integral consultant, weekend woodworker, and full time father. Corey has been working with Integral Life and Ken Wilber since 2003, and is responsible for most of the writing, image, and media production you find on IntegralLife.com.

In recent years Corey has also become a prominent host of several content series, including The Ken Show with Ken Wilber, Witt and Wisdom with Dr. Keith Witt, and Integral Justice Warrior with Mark Fischler.

Corey lives in Longmont, Colorado with his wife Angie and daughter Evelyn.

I produce our ongoing content, I find all those just-right images that capture the essence of the practices, perspectives, and presentations we publish. I also edit our audio interviews from their raw state into what you hear on the site. I then wrap some pretty-but-maybe-sometimes-too-lyrical words around the whole ordeal. Then I deliver the week's offerings to your inbox, all in hopes that all of this has somehow made your day just a little bit brighter.

I also built the new IntegralLife.com website, and manage the the site technology behind the scenes.

Now you know who to blame.
