Corey Mize joined Echelon Front in 2021 as a member of the Leadership Development and Alignment Program. She currently serves as Extreme Ownership Academy Director and Sustainment Training Manager.
After earning her degree in Computer Science, Corey spent several years at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, working her way up from software developer to project manager leading multiple teams. During that time, she also led a team of internal Extreme Ownership trainers, tasked with embedding a culture of EO across the organization from the inside out.
Before joining Echelon Front, Corey left the Corps to lead Base Camp Coding Academy as its Executive Director, and served as a part-time instructor of freshman and senior-level courses at both Mississippi State University and the University of Mississippi.
At Echelon Front, Corey directs the online Extreme Ownership Academy, develops training curriculums tailored to client needs, manages sustainment training programs, and assists with instruction — ensuring the leadership principles clients learn in the room become habits that hold long after the training ends.
Education: Master's in Computer Science, Mississippi State University
Corey is a wife and mother of two.
