Renee grew up in Houston County and has lived in Middle Georgia her whole life. She and her husband, Jake Corwine, have been proud pet parents for decades. Most recently, of Angelina Growlee and Rollo Claudel, pictured above.
Angelina lived at a local shelter from the time she was a few weeks old until she was nearly three years old, when Renee and Jake adopted her. That's three long years of an organization taking care of her through vet visits and food, and volunteers spending time and love on her - not to mention the countless chew toys she destroyed. Three years adds up!
Renee and Jake have routinely donated to local recsues but for were looking for a way to do more. That's when the idea for the Good Boi Gallery came about. Realizing that a collective can achieve more than an inidividual, Renee formed this non-profit in June 2026 to raise the funds that rescues need to care for dogs like Angelina.
Outside of finding her way through the non-profit world, Renee works in commercial real estate in Macon. She's also the lead instructor at boutique fitness studio, Pure Barre Macon. In addition to her jobs, Renee enjoys lending her skills to local community groups. She's the president of the board of Bike Walk Macon, a board member of Macon Pops, a board member of The Macon Beer Fest/Pints for Prostates, a board member of the Alumni Coucil at Middle Georgia State University, and the Commander's Key Support Liason for her husband's squadron.
Renee enjoys traveling, competing in triathlon, hiking with the pups, drinking good beer and exploring the world.
