With a professional background that spans 8 years as a frontend engineer (the last 4 being at a 'lead' level at Tatari among others), Cody is highly proficient in TV ad tech and the knowledge and experience he's gained over these years is exactly what we've been hunting for at Origin as we continue to invest in our growing suite of first to market ad formats.
Born, raised and currently residing Arizona, Cody splits his life between building new technology and raising three kids (two daughters and a son) with his wife Claire who keep them both very busy.
When he's not taking kids to dance, cheer, or soccer, his hobbies include date nights with his wife, going to the gym, and playing sports. He also competes in amateur pickleball tournaments at the 4.5 level and hopes to play at the pro level next year.
As to why he went with Origin? We asked Cody and here is what he had to say - "When interviewing at different companies, it was very apparent to me that there is something special happening at Origin. From the culture they're building internally, to the message they spread publicly, their is a consistency and drive behind everything they do." He went on to say "Once you get a taste of the experience here, it's hard not to want to be part of it and push yourself to achieve more than you have before. I really believe Origin is going to make a huge impact in the CTV space and I'm grateful I get to be a part of it."
The knowledge Cody possesses and personality he brings to the table is precisely what we want at Origin as we continue to invest in the 'technology' side of this industry leading 'creative technology' company and we are proud to have him on the team with us.
