Corey Lay

Video game and app developer, Corey Lay, was among those looking for love in HBO's holiday themed dating show "12 Dates of Christmas." The series followed men and women as they step into a real-life romantic comedy full of cozy sweaters, fireside cuddles, and mistletoe kisses - all arranged to find that special someone just in time for the holidays. Outside of the tech industry, Corey is also a certified personal trainer and an activist for LGBTQ+ rights, the Black community, and more. Through the series, he hopes to show the power of embracing vulnerability and encourage those watching to not be afraid of putting themselves out there.
