Personal Details

Bio

A true island girl born in Trinidad; migrated, lived and worked in Jamaica for 21 years and now back on home soil! Started off my career as a Teacher and somehow, I still work in that vein in my personal and professional life teaching and serving others.

I am an Award Winning Author, Self Publishing Consultant, Online Business and Self Worth Coach, Newspaper Columnist, Online Course Creator. The common thread in all that I do - I love people, I love life, I love to teach, I serve others, I give from the heart and soul and I desire to see others happy and attain their goals and dreams!

A recent separation from a 27 year toxic relationship has allowed me to be a beacon of light, inspiration and strength to others; an expert by experience in knowing who I am, who God meant me to be, my self worth and what I truly deserve.

  • Corine gave the presentation entitled 'Public Relations Matters!' at a Dynamic Speakers Toastmasters Club meeting on July 30th, 2020. Her presentation was excellent, as it connected both the personal and collective aspects of PR, featured relevant examples, and challenged the audience with compelling calls to action.

  • Dear Corine, I wanted to thank you for your presentation entitled ‘How to become an Amazon bestseller’ at The NGC Bocas Lit Fest on Wednesday 25th April, 2018. It was quite informative. It especially reinforced for me • The need for pre-marketing for an author before publication. • Authors need to realize that in today’s world there are many choices which can be taken on the road to publication beyond the traditional route. • Amazon has many built in resources to assist the writer in marketing and selling their work and analysis of interactions. I appreciated • You raising the issue that an author should view their work as a business, since that is, I believe, a message that many prospective and published authors need to have reinforced…and many need to know that they should create some sort of a marketing plan. • The links and resources provided which would allow for follow up, and further acquisition of knowledge for the seeker. But what I liked most was • The positive and affirmative action wording of the topic “Becoming an Amazon Bestseller”. Wording which denoted having to take action, work, (having to work to achieve greatness) and goal setting. • Your presentation reinforced and repeatedly mentioned these concepts in one way or another. • You asked “What is Your Objective”, so that the writer/receiver of the presentation, whether they could respond at the time or needed to process this question, had something to think about as per the direction/goal/ objective for their writing and publishing career. Thank you once again, Nadine Roach

    The Self Publishing University-Less Talk More Action Conference
    Verified
  • Corine was a pleasure to work with regard to the International webinar "Less Talk More Action" by the Self-Publishing University, on May 31. She was so organized and efficient, she paid attention to everything information, timetable, recordings, presentations promotions and other marketing material. She made the whole process clear, simple and efficient. She sent emails and some updates and made sure that everything was working correctly. Her in-depth knowledge of the webinar platform gave me great confidence that she could handle any glitches that might arise. Her patience and relaxed attitude blend with humor made it fun to work with her. The event went off without any problems, and I would love to work with her again.
