Sheree Corniel
Founder/Executive Director
Hello, my name is Sheree D. Corniel, and I am the founder of Real Talk.
With more than 20 years in law enforcement, I am intimately familiar with the penal system and the recidivism rates of both children and adults who go through it.
That experience inspired me to create Real Talk, which strives to keep children from ever entering the system by showing them there are positive options. Growing up in Carson, CA, I witnessed firsthand what can go wrong when children lack positive influences in their lives.
My vision is to save as many lives as I can by preparing a positive roadmap for kids and providing them with the tools they need to become all they are destined to be.
I credit the Bautista family for giving me the opportunity for positive change through competitive fastpitch softball, which led to an athletic college scholarship and ultimately to me becoming an Olympian.
Now, I want to give our youth that same opportunity.
