BIO:
First born of a brood that would eventually cap off at five kids being raised by three parents.
Corin doesn't recall a time he ever didn't have a mom and two dads and he's glad not to.
Being the oldest meant accidentally being the trial and error kid. He attended four years of public school before his parents all decided that homeschooling was the best course of action for their children.
Initially, he was unsettled by the change and the fear that he wouldn't be able to see his friends caused him to act out in a variety of different tantrums.
Settled into his new norm in time (along with plenty of patience from his parents) and he soon found the lack of rigidity and restriction gave him a taste for freedom early and he's never quite mastered how to sit still because of it.
By the time the family was completed with the birth of his youngest sister, Corky had well and truly flourished in his role as a big brother four times over.
His love of travel and seeing new places and meeting new faces started with the many road trips that his family went on when he was a kid and he's never lost the desire to just get behind the wheel and drive.
Try as they did, the rose-tinted glasses that he viewed the world through didn't remain in place forever. By the time he had hit his teens, he had some awareness of what a financial burden a family of seven was.
He started working from age fourteen, taking on any odd job in town that someone would pay him for so he could contribute to the household.
When everyone around him started to fill out college applications and tour potential campuses, Corky knew that that wasn't the right path for him.
The idea of classrooms and deadlines and exams made him feel a kind of claustrophobia that he had never experienced before and he refused to subject himself to trying it.
There were also other motivating factors for why he wanted to stick close to home, the main one being when a tornado touched down in his life in the form of Micah Sebastian.
He fell head over heels for her and was determined to make the relationship work even as it slowly started to erode in front of his eyes when she began dealing.
Fights became more frequent than conversation towards the end but frustrations morphed into something that he couldn't forgive after their final argument and the revelation that she had aborted the baby that he had wanted without telling him.
Adrift and with his whole world off kilter, Cor did the only thing he could do to try and handle it and he left.
Spent his time travelling from age 23, backpacking his way through Europe before exploring Asia and eventually landing himself in Australia.
He stayed there until he had to complete mandated farm work to maintain his visa.
Returned to Cascade at 26 and crashed with his parents until he could afford to move out.
Not long after his initial return to town, he was scouted at a concert by an employee of a modelling agency based in LA. This eventually became his main source of income.
Still models to this day even if he can't help taking up an odd job here and there when the interest strikes him.
