Jodi graduated with highest honors from the University of Wisconsin – La Crosse in 2019, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Sociology with minors in Psychology and Chinese Studies. Her keen interest in understanding societal inequities and human behavior led her to pursue this academic path. Jodi later graduated from the University of Wisconsin Law School in May 2023, where she not only completed her Doctor of Jurisprudence requirements but also graduated with a concentration in Labor & Employment.

Jodi's legal journey began as a law clerk at the Department of Corrections and later as a summer associate focusing on labor and employment litigation. One of her proudest accomplishments during law school was being elected to serve as a Co-President of the newly created and rapidly expanding organization, First Generation Lawyers. Through her leadership, Jodi was pivotal in building an environment that fostered mentorship and community, successfully expanding the organization to over 150 members. This experience showcased her dedication to creating supportive communities wherever she goes.

Jodi's journey to becoming an attorney is also deeply personal. As a product of the orphanage system and as an adoptee who moved to the United States at a later age, she recognizes the vital role of family and advocacy in shaping lives. Her prior experiences working with at-risk children, adults with disabilities, and impoverished family law clients have given her unique insights into the complexities of family structures.
