Coach Jodi has been a part of the Linfield community as one of our distinguished Bible faculty since 2012. In her time as a Lion, she has fostered wonderful relationships with students, parents, and co-workers. In addition to being a qualified teacher, Coach Jodi has a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Psychology from Pepperdine University as well as a background in church counseling. She finds joy in talking with people and helping them navigate the obstacles of life and loves to do that through the world of cheerleading. 

Coach Jodi was a cheer captain on her high school squad and coached the Linfield Middle School cheer team for four years, previously coaching the team at a competition level. Her coaching philosophy stems from a desire to create a 6th-12th grade cohesive cheer program founded on the mission of Linfield to know Jesus, love others, and grow in knowledge and skill. She considers herself very blessed to spend time with the student-athletes and an honor to be able to walk beside them on their journey. Her desire to do all things with excellence will allow her to lead this year’s cheer team to the next level.

Coach Jodi has been married to her husband Jeff for 25+ years and together they have 4 children who have all attended Linfield.
