He is incredibly excited to have the opportunity to spend the next year in South Bend for the Notre Dame Sports Medicine fellowship. Cody served as Vice Chief in his final year of residency.
Why Memorial for Sports Medicine fellowship: I loved the past 3 years here at Memorial as a resident! During that time, I had the opportunity to work with amazing ATCs, many of the fellowship faculty, and covering an exciting variety of athletic events. In addition to offering an incredible amount of coverage, the fellowship offers high-volume procedures, including US, and this will give me the skills needed in my future practice. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to cover Notre Dame athletics as well. Go Irish!
