Corey Reiser is a former Army Artillery Officer, real estate investor, and founder of School of Grit. A Division I lacrosse player at the U.S. Military Academy, he built the discipline and resilience that shaped his career. After leaving the military, Corey applied those same principles to real estate, creating a successful portfolio and achieving financial freedom at a young age.
Through School of Grit, he shares hard-earned lessons on mental toughness, self-reliance, and overcoming obstacles. Whether leading in the Army, competing on the field, or navigating business challenges, he believes in pushing limits and learning through experience. Outside of work, Corey enjoys traveling and seeking out new challenges that expand his perspective.
