After almost 15 years in healthcare, Jody began her journey in the beauty industry in 2019 with a partnership with a medical spa. The experience inspired Jody to venture further into the industry, prompting her to purchase Zealand Spa Salon in March of 2021. What Jody loves most about Zealand is the new family she has inherited, composed of not only staff but also clients, suppliers and neighboring businesses. She thoroughly enjoys watching creativity unfold each day as clients are transformed before her eyes. While you won’t see Jody behind the chair performing services, you will often see her watching, studying and learning from each of the talented stylists. This newfound love of the beauty industry has had quite an effect on Jody, pushing her to step outside of her comfort zone and experiment with different hair colors and makeup. You will sometimes see her with hot pink, purple or even blue hair crafted by one of Zealand’s talented stylists! When she has a chance to step away from Zealand, Jody enjoys spending time with her daughter, son and father as well as hiking, practicing yoga and traveling, especially for a yoga retreat!
