Korrina’s story is rooted deeply in the Penn Hills community. Her life reflects a journey of profound transformation.
As a proud alumna of Sojourner House and POWER, she has fought tirelessly to rebuild her life, and today she channels that hard‑won resilience into her work as a dedicated professional caregiver. She is a mother who carries the heavy heartbreak of losing her children to the system, an experience that fuels her remarkable empathy for others navigating their own darkest moments.
Through every chapter, art and creative writing have remained her sanctuary and her source of joy.
Grounded firmly in her recovery, Korrina now lives with a steady, intentional purpose: to remain present, to make choices that honor her ongoing growth, and to extend a compassionate hand to anyone in need.
