About SA Corley Studio

More Than Just AI.

SA Corley Studio | AI is part of a broader practice I’ve built to serve organizations in transition, growth, or reinvention. In addition to AI solutions, I offer fractional executive and consulting support in strategy, governance, finance, and marketing — always rooted in trust, alignment, and mission clarity.

Founded by Stephen A. Corley, this studio is where legacy leadership meets next-gen tools. With decades of experience in hospitality, wine, and nonprofit sectors — and a deep appreciation for clarity and service — I help teams adapt without losing their voice, culture, or control.

Meet Stephen

I’ve spent more than 25 years in leadership — from managing a family legacy in Napa Valley to guiding nonprofits, hospitality groups, and finance teams.

My early career at KPMG grounded me in strategy and structure. My later work taught me the value of story, voice, and community.

I created this studio to help others harness AI with the same clarity and care that’s shaped my own work.

Why SA Corley Studio

Because you want someone who gets it.

Someone who understands the weight of decisions and the value of small details. Someone who’s rolled up their sleeves with boards, families, exec teams, and community leaders. I bring continuity, collaboration, and clarity — whether you need a tech-savvy partner or a trusted hand at the table.

This isn’t an agency. This is a studio — and we move together.

Why AI? Why Now?

After years of guiding businesses and nonprofits through complexity, I saw something new in AI: a way to simplify, to amplify, and to reconnect.

Not to replace people — but to support them.

Not to overwhelm — but to organize.

With the right structure and the right tools, AI becomes a quiet, confident assist.

That’s what we build here.

Still Doing the Work

I haven’t stepped away from the leadership roles that shaped me.

I continue to work with select teams as a fractional executive — bringing strategy, governance, finance, and marketing insights that are grounded, collaborative, and real.
