Meet Corey Black

If you've visited the Living Well Center, you've probably seen Corey Black, Biltmore Farms' Residential Community Associate. By filling this full-time position, Corey is able to make residents' experiences in the community as pleasant, fun, and fulfilling as possible. Throughout the day, you can find him planning events and insuring that each person who visits the Living Well Center has everything that they need. When asked about his favorite part of the job, Corey responded that it is "leading activities with the children and families and seeing them relaxing and enjoying each other's company."

The focus on family and friends is unique among traditional recreational programs. "We want to provide an outlet for every age and household mix," explains Corey. "From a formal Wine Tasting series to the Wacky World of Water Olympics to hikes in the National Forest, everyone can find something to enjoy. Another nice aspect about having just me to organize and lead activities is that we are a flexible enough program to personalize events and try new ideas that are out of the ordinary. I am always looking for ideas and input from residents to customize a program geared toward what they want rather than the standard recreational programming."

Corey's personal approach helps make The Ramble Biltmore Forest the premiere gated community in Asheville. Next time you see Corey around the Living Well Center, be sure to say hi and offer your ideas for the next community event. Don't have any ideas? Say hi anyway, and get to know him. When not at The Ramble, Corey is usually enjoying time with his wife and two children while hiking, playing in the yard, and even gathering fresh eggs from their chickens. He also plays traditional and electric banjo in his band The Scenic Roots.
