Don’t ever give up.

Nobody wants to peak when they’re eight, but that’s when Cody won the first-place Elks Hoop Shoot trophy, and he’s been chasing that high ever since. His accomplishments since then include biking more than 10 miles a day, a growing family (including an Australian Shepherd who may be part raccoon), and installing his own board and batten, so we think there’s no limit to where he can go from here.

At work, Cody adds value by learning about the nuances in each client’s business—what they do differently and how they do it—which helps him leverage what he knows and how he can help.
