Jody started her career in healthcare, staying in the industry for 20 years and spending 10 of those years as CEO helping her organization win national accolades for achieving the highest level of care. After her successful run in healthcare, she co-founded CampaignBuddy in 2019 and within 6 months she designed, developed and launched CampaignBuddy. Her company developed a SaaS tool, an ad campaign management tool to help small businesses “playball” online. It provides a one-stop-shop to design, create, launch and manage digital ads on various platforms like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google, etc. with no extensive marketing experience. In addition to starting her own company in 2019, Jody joined WeMN (Women Entrepreneurs of MN). WeMN is a non-profit organization helping women entrepreneurs connect, share, grow, develop and learn together. As the current President, Jody joined WeMN to give back to other women trying to achieve their dreams through entrepreneurship. In 2021, Jody finally got her game on. She is the COO at Wisdom Gaming Inc, a first of its kind esports company in the Midwest. Wisdom is an 18,0000 sq ft gaming and esports venue with a live broadcast studio, bar, and lounge located on the fourth floor of Mall of America. Despite no gaming experience, with her leadership Jody is helping the team create Wisdom’s long-term strategy growth, operational effectiveness and efficiencies to launch this amazing company in a “wild, wild west industry”. As a leader and entrepreneur, Jody understands the drive, passion, and commitment it takes to run a successful business. To be a good leader, life must be in balance. So, beyond work, Jody enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, traveling, boating, walking her dogs, golfing, listening to audiobooks, watching movies, and spending time with friends.
