About Me

Coops Crossing
My name is Cornelius (Coop) Collins and as the founder of Coop's Crossing, I understand the importance of finding a way when the road says "Detour Ahead." I've heard the words, "You have cancer," and I realize the importance of exploring new avenues, and creating a new roadmap for the future. My journey has profoundly changed my life and my commitment to understanding and applying the principles that lead to health and healing have had a dramatic and positive impact on my life. This learning and experience is the foundation upon which Coop's Crossing is built. It's my sincere desire and passion t help you define your own roadmap to hope and healing.
