Cora Budd

Cora Budd is an eight-year-old creator, storyteller, and third-grader at Division Street Elementary School in Saratoga Springs, New York. For the past two years, she has been a key creative partner in building the Blossom Universe — an AI-assisted world filled with imaginative characters, storylines, quizzes, and even early podcast experiments. Cora approaches AI with the curiosity and confidence of her generation, blending bold creativity with an intuitive sense of what feels right. When she’s not co-developing Blossom content, she can usually be found drawing, writing stories, or dreaming up the next big idea.
