About Jody
Jody began working with students on a volunteer basis in his hometown of Meridian Mississippi. His passion for students only continued to grow from there. For the last 30 years, the desire to see young men and women succeed in life has only continued to grow. Though the avenues have changed over time, the purpose has always remained the same; to reach into the high school and middle school campuses of America with a message of hope.
Jody and his wife have traveled the roads of Mississippi and Louisiana for 10 years, providing school assembly programs to both challenge and motivate the student population that there is more than today, and tomorrow looks bright. Students showed a desire to go beyond and so they developed a follow-up program that would equip students to become leaders, voice pieces of hope, to their own campus.
Jody also conducts training for law enforcement, fire/EMS personnel, educators, church ministry teams, and whom ever would like a specialized training. Currently Jody has trained over 2,000 LEOs, over 4,ooo firefighters/EMS, over 1,000 educators, and thousands of other professionals.
Jody communicates out of his own experiences and life lessons, some of them not so glamorous. It is his real-life approach that makes him a sought after communicator to this generation of students.
Jody and his wife Wendy serve in the position of Eastern Regional Director with FREE International. FREE Int is a faith based organization leading the charge in the fight against human trafficking and are the Executive directors of Say Something School Assemblies.
Jody and his wife Wendy live in Brandon, Mississippi. They have two grown daughters (Alicia and Emily), a son-in-law (Micah), and 4 grandchildren (Asher, Silas, Naomi & Joseph) that they would love to tell you about.
