About Orchard

We started Orchard because the old way of choosing a career is broken.

Most students leave high school with no real exposure to what work actually feels like, no clear sense of what they’re uniquely good at, and no plan beyond “go to college and figure it out later.”

We believe no teenager should have to gamble their future on hope.

Orchard was built to give students real clarity and real confidence in an AI-driven world.

Orchard is built on one core idea: When people combine self-awareness with real-world exposure and a concrete plan, they don’t just “find a job.” They climb.

Orchard was founded by Corey Kossack, a life long entrepreneur who has already helped 50,000 businesses and 40,000 individuals reach ambitious goals they once thought impossible.

Corey has spent his entire career helping people who are ready to help themselves. Now he’s poured everything he’s learned into Orchard so high school students can climb to a future they’re truly excited about.
