On Deck
with Cody
Thoughtful writing about leadership, higher education, technology, and life.
I’m Cody. I work in higher education, where I spend my days helping students succeed, improving organizations, and using data to make better decisions.
This is where I write about ideas worth sharing—including lessons drawn from leadership, public service, technology, baseball, books, and everyday life.
My goal is simple: that every essay leaves you with one useful idea, one better question, or one practical insight.
About
I’ve spent my career working with students, educators, and communities to solve meaningful problems. While my professional work centers on higher education, I’m equally interested in leadership, technology, customer service, and lifelong learning.
