Personal Journey
Dr. Corbin’s passion for understanding human behavior and the laws that govern it began at an early age. At fourteen, she found herself engrossed in Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams and wondered if her future lay in studying dreams as a scientist. Although no one in her family had been to college, she was determined to pursue higher education. Fascinated by how rules about behavior were made and enforced, this curiosity led her to explore the many intersections of psychology and law. Over time, this exploration evolved into a dedication to the intersection of workplace performance science and law.
