As a first-generation college student, Korie received a full-ride scholarship into the Dozoretz National Institute for Mathematics and Applied Science (DNIMAS) program at Norfolk State University, a historically black college or university (HBCU). In 2012,  Korie graduated from NSU with a Bachelor’s in Chemistry: Pre-Med and eventually landed a job at a biomedical device company called CryoLife, Inc.  Korie worked as a Medical Device Associate assembling the HeRO® Graft (Hemodialysis Reliable Outflow), the only fully subcutaneous AV access solution clinically proven to maintain long-term access for hemodialysis patients with central venous stenosis. While there,  Korie decided to pursue graduate studies and was accepted into Cornell University’s Biomedical Engineering PhD program.
