Originally from Tucson Arizona, Cody was raised and trained most of her youth in California’s Bay Area. She trained in all genres of dance and gymnastics with a primary focus in Classical Ballet. Cody has worked with Georgina Coleman, Ronni Mahler and Dennis Nahat and San Jose Cleveland/Ballet San Jose of Silicon Valley. Working close as a student/apprentice with their company gave the passion to follow her dreams of a life in the Arts. 

Cody has danced and taught all over the west coast. Working with some companies like San Jose Cleveland Ballet, Ballet San Jose, San Jose Youth Ballet, Peninsula Ballet and California Ballet. Cody also has worked on several independent projects throughout the years bringing so many amazing influences to her life. She has taught for 15 years and continues to learn and grow as a dance educator.

Her passion for clean and pure classical technique combined with a draw to choreography has given her the inspiration to create and mount many dance works, full length Classical and Contemporary Ballets.  She provides her students and other young adult artists the training tailored for their specific need and ability.
