Cody moved to WA from Knoxville, TN and began working at NorthSound in early 2015. He earned his DPT from the UT Health Science Center in Memphis in 2013. Part of what drew Cody to the Pacific Northwest was the active lifestyle. He spends his time with his wife, daughter, and dog Zoey. They enjoy walking around Greenlake, camping, playing basketball, snowboarding, and crabbing. After undergoing his own shoulder surgery in high school, Cody found a passion for helping others heal and return to the activities they love.

I love sports and found studying the human body to be fascinating. When I realized I could combine my hobbies with my love for anatomy I was sold and that is why I decided to be a physical therapist.

“I thoroughly enjoy my job as a physical therapist, and I have been fortunate to be involved with such a great group of people over the years. I enjoy cultivating long term patient and physician relationships, and I continue to appreciate and respect the important role that physical therapy plays in the recovery from injury or illness.”

I chose to become a physical therapy assistant because I love working with people in a helping/healing environment.  In the past, I suffered from a traumatic knee injury that aided in my compassion/understanding for those who are undergoing rehabilitation.  Additionally, I am an avid supporter of preventative medicine and aspire to further my education/training in this direction.  Other interests include snowboarding, surfing, travel, golf, hiking, biking, and caring for animals.

I’m a Washington native and received my Occupational Therapy Assistant degree from Lake Washington Insititute of Technology in 2012. I have experience in hand therapy and pediatrics. My primary goal is to assist patients in achieving their optimal level of well being so they can engage fully in what is meaningful to them. I joined the Northsound team in 2023. Outside of work I enjoy gardening and cooking.
