Corbin had a deep love for animals, finding solace and companionship in their presence. In his free time, he enjoyed playing video games, and loved exploring the outdoors through hiking, motorcycle rides and embracing the beauty of mountains and beaches. But above all that, he was always known to be in close range of a cheeseburger to avoid being “hangry.”
