Corey Collins, M.

I have a proven track record of managing high-volume, high-complexity programs and teams that execute and communicate better and that collaborate and anticipate more.

My background spans over 10 business sectors including: Telecommunications, Fire & Security, Retail Media, Digital Signgage, and more. The teams I've led have had hands-on implementation experience and have driven costs down through efficient work practices. We implement and integrate modern software to collaborate and provide real-time operational progress updates.

Together, me and my teams have saved businesses over $25M in waste with over 20% of that savings being directly attributed to my personal initiatives and integrations.

I am a self-taught full-stack MERN developer with real project experience and an effective businesses as a web developer. I foster initiatives small and large alike; responsive web designs and quick-turn solutions, along with deep integrations & dashboards.

Beginning with responsive & symmantic HTML & CSS, I moved onto Javascript via React. Before long, I was creating endpoints in Node JS with Express and storing RESTful data in MongoDB (Community & Atlas). I prefer to use the NextJS platform, but have also worked in python slightly with django.

My preferences have historically been to avoid libraries at first in order to implement solutions with vanilla methods, creating a better learning environment and more understanding of foundational practices. As an example, I have created full JWT-based Authentication and Authorization by utilizing HTTP-only cookies with request middleware.

My journey will never be complete, but I have proven my abilities to combine good project management to create an effective learning path to full-stack. I have put these learnings into practice for small and medium-sized businesses for use in dashboards, platform integrations (Asana, Monday.com, ClickUp, Google APIs), contact forms, full responsive site development, site analytics, and more.

I have led innovation in telecommunications since 2012 with certificates from the likes of T-Mobile and Nokia. Working with GCs in the Cincinnati, Columbus, and Indianapolis markets, I have executed hundreds of successful integrations of 5G AirScale modules from Nokia.

Operating as Coba Communications LLC in Ohio, I led teams of integrators that consistently improved operations through real-time progress updates, process-based troubleshooting, and innovative process changes that reduced labor hours in the thousands. We consistently found new ways to execute better quality integrations without sacrificing safety.

With over a decade of experience in photography and design, I have established multiple brands and led creative work that effectively communicates the passion my clients feel for their businesses to their customers in visual ways. I tell stories visually that people feel emotionally to create connection between brands and people.

I have led initiatives with AI image-generation combined with traditional photoshop techniques and 3D animation to create new assets that cost less, are created quicker, and have more of an impact.
