Before receiving his bachelor's in mass communications from Jackson State University in 2002, Cory Collins had already begun working in his chosen field of study. Fueled by his passion for sports, he turned a junior year internship into a full-time position with the CBS-affiliate television station in Jackson, MS as a sports journalist, editor and videographer. Despite being courted by the likes of ESPN and several other networks, he decided to leave the TV industry.
Collins founded Ample Opportunity, Inc., in December 2006 and provides promotional marketing, customer acquisition and sales for large, service-based corporations such as AT&T, DIRECTV, U-verse, Dish Network and Staples.
To further broaden his horizons, Collins also became a certified coach, teacher, and speaker with the John C. Maxwell team just shy of his 10-year anniversary as a business owner. This led to Ample Opportunity, Inc. being named one of the top 10 corporate education and training companies in the country by Enterprise Services Outlook Magazine.
Additionally, Collins is the author of "Life is Easy. We Make it Hard – The World Wants You to Win. Get Out of Your Own Way," an award-winning self-help book that offers practical advice for its readers to follow on a range of topics such as unlocking your full potential, finding your true calling and overcoming adversity. Collins resides in Apopka, Florida.
