Jodi grew up in Farmington Hills, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. She completed her undergraduate degree at Washington University in St. Louis and her medical degree at Des Moines University. Jodi has always had an interest in the developing brain, and she is so excited to begin her child neurology training here at Vanderbilt University Medical Center!

In her free time, Jodi enjoys spending time with her fiancé, Taylor, and blue heeler, Sriracha (yes, the same type of dog as Bluey!). She also loves being outside, listening to live music, and playing/watching tennis.
