He first started his entrepreneurial journey while in college, as the cofounder and CEO of SnowGate, which he took from napkin to acquisition in three years. While working as the EIR at the Boulder based accelerator Boomtown, Cory fell in love with helping founders navigate the fundraising journey. This led him to cofound Colorado's first pre-seed fund, Kokopelli Capital. In 2018 Cory cofounded the Greater Colorado Venture Fund and has been a General Partner ever since.
