She has trained at Columbia College Chicago, Acting Studio Chicago, and Green Shirt Studio. She graduated from the Second City Chicago Conservatory program in 2019. Cori wrote many sketches during her time at Second City, which led her to write her pilot called "CROWDED," an anthology dramedy series about Black women illuminating their unique, quirky perspectives on managing their mental health.
