Corinn Marquis, Fonder & CEO of Brilliant Abundance prides herself on her work in advocacy and activism for women identifying as indirect and direct survivors of sexual violence, domestic violence, and/or child abuse.  Determined to serve as an effective change agent for rape culture in America and identifying as an indirect survivor herself, she understands first-hand the need for continued healing, growth, personal development, and spiritual wholeness.

A California native, currently residing in the D.M.V, Corinn Marquis has always been passionate about this particular demographic.  Starting her collegiate education at the University of California, Davis she majored in sociology with an emphasis in law and society and minored in religious studies; with a strong desire to become a prosecutor in sex crimes, she served as a litigation paralegal in environmental risk management, while working on her masters of science in legal studies.  Ultimately, she realized she could be of better service to the community than to the justice system, by touching the lives of survivors directly and with a level of reliability and compassion that those unaffected might not understand.

Locally, Corinn Marquis began her advocacy efforts working as a crisis intervention advocate at the local rape crisis center.  Nearly four years later, she has also taken on the roles of supporting hotline advocates as a Backup Supervisor, Team Lead, and Technical & Training Assistance co-facilitator; she serves on the Junior Executive Board for Knock Out Abuse; she is an Empowered Women International, Entrepreneur Fellow, and an Entrepreneur graduate of the Black upStart Bootcamp.

Often inspired by empowering women, Corinn Marquis is dedicated to serving as a vessel of change and a service provider for healing and spiritual wholeness to women in the domestic and/or sexual violence communities. 

Identifying as an indirect survivor herself, she found it difficult to rid herself of the embarrassment and shame that came along with enduring the lasting effects and aftermath of her mothers' childhood sexual assault.  While working on goal-setting and creating a vision board to start her next chapter of personal development and growth the idea to create a non-profit to empower women through personal development and spiritual healing was born.

Brilliant Abundance serves to meet the need of continued support, empowerment, spiritual wholeness and healing for indirect and direct survivors of sexual violence, domestic violence, and/or child abuse, post-crisis intervention.
