Corey Bolka brings nearly 20 years of experience leading intelligence and operations in support of joint and coalition missions across CENTCOM, EUCOM and PACOM. He has advised senior U.S. and partner-nation leaders in fast-paced, high-stakes environments and now he’s bringing that expertise to Accel Innovation Corporation.
