Corina is a standout candidate for this award because she transformed her own breast cancer journey into a mission of healing and empowerment for others. After her diagnosis in 2020, Corina faced grueling treatment and the profound emotional toll of mastectomy and realized that there was a deep, unmet need for support for survivors struggling with body image and self-confidence. From that personal struggle, she founded Ink 4 Pink – a nonprofit dedicated to helping breast cancer survivors feel whole again. Corina launched Ink 4 Pink while simultaneously working full-time and still recovering from cancer, demonstrating remarkable grit, compassion, and commitment. Her kindness and spunky spirit fuel collaborations with local artists, community fundraisers like Pints 4 Pink, and outreach that lightens the physical and emotional load survivors carry. Through her brilliance and selflessness, Corina is not just supporting survivors but she is truly reshaping what healing after breast cancer can look like, making her a truly deserving recipient of this honor.

Her favorite quote is: “Life is too short. Live it to the fullest, each and every day, because you never know what tomorrow may bring”
