Cory appears to be one of the only members of the UpWard leadership team who were genuinely liked by the other staff. He was the supervisor of the 2nd floor. Accounts characterize him as highly driven and always smiling.

Staff notes mention he could often be found at his workstation from early in the morning, rarely leaving his office unattended. He heavily relied on his personal assistant to take care of matters throughout the rest of the floor, but made sure to spread his motto: "Let's bring out the children's inner spark!"
