Cortney Morris is the Vice President of Your Performance People and brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience. She began schooling with a focus in psychology and spent a great deal of time working as a member of a behavioral research team. During this time, she developed a love of learning how to implement research into the real world. She graduated with a Master’s Degree in School Counseling. After graduation, she accepted a position as a family therapist working with high-risk children and families.

Having grown up in a coaching household, Cortney was always drawn to the field. In 2013, she decided to put her energy and focus on transferring her skillset to working with business professionals, and so she obtained her certification as a Master Practitioner of NLP. In 2014, she became a Certified Personal and Executive Coach through the CAPP Institute and began her coaching career with MAPS coaching.
