Dr. Corprew is passionate about revolution, not the bloody riots that mar cities and countries, but the opportunities we all have for personal and global transformation. Charles believes that answering the most thought-provoking question of one’s life, “What’s Your Revolution?”, will kickstart one’s journey to be the healthiest most transformative version of themselves. Charles helps people fulfill their revolutions by providing educational skills, life tools, coaching, and capital necessary to illuminate and catalyze the genius that resides within all of us.

It would be the lessons learned from his mentees at Green Run High School that allowed Charles to attain his Ph.D. in Psychological Science from Tulane University, where he focused his research on resilient outcomes for boys and men of color. After a successful tenure as a professor, where he received national and international recognition for his scholarship, Charles believed there was more to sitting behind a desk pontificating about how things should be. After being spurred on by his W.K. Kellogg Foundation Fellowship award, Charles started his social impact consulting firm, “What’s Your Revolution?”, where he works to help people and organizations “Revolt and Evolve”. As founder and CEO, Charles has worked with some of the most influential leaders to catalyze and disperse capital, marshal resources for communities, and craft policy, programming, and practice that allows everyone to thrive.
