Economic Empowerment Strategist, Keynote Speaker & Founder of Social Storm
I’m Corey Phillips — a 22-year-old entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and economic empowerment strategist working at the intersection of financial literacy, ownership, leadership, and technology.
Through Social Storm LLC, I partner with schools, nonprofits, corporations, and government agencies to deliver high-impact programs that help people understand how money, opportunity, and power actually work in today’s economy. From youth financial education to AI and workforce readiness training, my work equips individuals and organizations to think long-term, build real wealth, and create lasting community impact.
My mission is simple: to help people recognize their value, gain economic confidence, and build the future they deserve.
