I am a highly successful serial entrepreneur who enjoys helping non-profit, global, mid level and small corporations succeed in fulfilling their missions.
I am a multi-skilled marketing, business development and training expert specializing in needs analysis and consultative atomization with top notch clientele such as Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, the NYSE, GE, 3M and ExxonMobile. I am an award-winning manager with a high level of sophistication for a broad range of B2B and B2C services. I have a long history of partnering with a vast network of enterprise owners and corporate officers at the CXO level of Fortune 500 and bulge bracket companies that have enabled me to always exceed my on-boarding quotas and revenue goals.
A consummate team player, I had worked my way up to become a Vice President on Wall Street and have developed and managed many large scale revenue generating projects. Most recently I have embarked on a career change and taken on a new role - lead learning application developer – in the training sector.
As a certified Six Sigma Green Belt I also value quality.
I earned my MBA in Marketing from the Tobin School of Business. I have been inducted into the Sigma Iota Epsilon Management Honor Society and was hand selected to be an Executive-in-Residence alumnus.
I currently sit on the Board of Directors of a charitable foundation and I am often sought out for my creative services in that space.

It is with great pleasure that I announce to you the creation of the William P. Corrigan Family Fund for the Ernest Hemingway Foundation and Society. The Corrigan family has set up this fund to commemorate the memory of my late father - William P. Corrigan.
The purpose of the fund is twofold: to fund grants to two finalists of the annual PEN/Hemingway Award and to fund an annual fellowship for Hemingway Cuban research.
Because of the great generosity and vigilance of the Ernest Hemingway Foundation the William P. Corrigan Family Fund will be able to award grant monies to two finalists of the PEN/Hemingway Award at a ceremony to be held this weekend at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston, MA.
The Corrigan family would like to thank all of the members of the Ernest Hemingway Foundation and Society, especially James Meredith, for making this happen for 2008.
We will keep you posted as more details come.
