Hi, I’m Cody.
I’m a CPA and finance leader in Central Florida. I enjoy finding the story in the numbers, building tools people actually want to use, and helping teams feel confident about what comes next.
Currently leading Commercial Project Management at Siemens Energy
Finance leader, teammate,
fiancé & dog dad.
A little about me
My career started in public accounting, where I learned that trust is built by getting the details right and asking good questions. At Siemens Energy, that foundation grew into something broader: helping people across finance and operations understand what the numbers are telling us and decide what to do next.
Today, I lead a team supporting North American onshore wind operations. My favorite work is the kind that brings order to a messy problem, gives someone time back in their day, or helps a team walk into a decision with more confidence.
Work I’m proud of
The numbers matter, but the part I remember is what changed for the people doing the work.
Seeing the whole picture
When you’re supporting more than 130 projects, the challenge isn’t a lack of data—it’s helping everyone see the same picture. I bring forecasting, project financials, and operating information together so leaders can spot changes early and have better conversations about what comes next.
Giving time back
Our finance team was spending hours every month categorizing hundreds of thousands of records. I helped lead the development and rollout of a machine-learning solution that handled the repetitive work accurately, then made the results useful through Power BI.
Solving it together
Data showed us that specialist spending was a meaningful cost driver. Instead of treating it as a spreadsheet exercise, I partnered with Operations to help certify local technicians. The result was lower cost, stronger local capability, and a solution the team could sustain.
Making the routine easier
Billing across long-term service projects involved too many manual steps and too much room for inconsistency. I automated and standardized the process, helping the team spend less time preparing invoices and move cash collection forward more quickly.
Experience
Each role has taught me something different—how to earn trust, how to connect details to the bigger picture, and how much better work gets when finance and operations truly listen to each other.

I lead 11 commercial project managers and 3 interns while helping steer the financial performance of a large North American service portfolio. The role is equal parts planning, problem-solving, coaching, and making sure leaders have an honest view of where things stand.
Siemens Energy · Wind
This role took me deep into the day-to-day financial life of 14 long-term wind service contracts—from project setup and revenue recognition to billing, forecasting, audit support, and difficult contract conversations.
KPMG LLP
Public accounting gave me a strong respect for details, deadlines, and the responsibility that comes with financial reporting. I led small teams on quarterly reviews for two Fortune 500 clients and learned how to stay calm when the stakes were high.
PepsiCo & KPMG
My first professional experiences introduced me to supply-chain finance, public accounting, and the satisfaction of building a process that works a little better than the one you inherited.
How I work
A good answer shouldn’t need a translator. I try to make financial information clear enough that people can actually use it.
I’d rather make one useful tool that a team chooses to use than five impressive ones that sit untouched.
The best finance answers usually come from understanding what Operations is seeing, hearing, and dealing with every day.
Leadership isn’t just delivering the result. It’s helping people build the confidence and judgment to do great work themselves.

Life outside work
Summer and I share our home in Daytona Beach with Duchess, our cat, and two dachshunds, Augustus and Cyrus. They keep life busy, funny, and never too serious.
If I have a free weekend, I’m probably working on the boat, taking it out, going for a run, or finding a stretch of beach. Summer and I also love getting away together and seeing somewhere new.
We’re happiest with somewhere to go—whether that’s a trip, a day by the water, or a new place close to home.
Working on the boat is part maintenance, part problem-solving, and a lot of learning as I go. Getting it out on the water makes the effort worth it.
Running is how I clear my head. I’m not above wearing a turkey hat for a race, either.
Duchess is the cat in charge. Augustus is the blonde dachshund; Cyrus is the black one. Together, they make sure the house is never quiet for long.
Thanks for stopping by.
If you’d like to talk about finance leadership, analytics, renewable energy—or dachshunds—I’d be glad to hear from you.
