She has a heart for serving those who are disadvantaged and underserved, and she has a lifelong history of volunteerism in many areas within the community. A native of Baton Rouge, Jodi received both her Bachelor’s and Master’s in Public Administration from Louisiana State University. Her love for running began in high school through cross country and track. She continued to run around the LSU lakes in college but running became her main activity after the birth of her children. She has participated in nearly every half marathon in Central Florida, and even discovered triathlons for a season, which she found to be another incredibly fun sport. Jodi enjoys the outdoors and anything on water, especially paddleboarding. She is the proud mom of a middle schooler and two college aged children.
