Born in Texas, raised in Missouri, but now a Californian, Cody received his BFA in Acting from Missouri State University and his certification in stage combat at Rapier Wit in Canada. Coming to Los Angeles in order to pursue a career in acting, he fell in love with the process of creating and building a story, igniting his true passion for screenwriting and directing.
CIMIM is the first 5 minutes of a feature length film, the cold opening if you will, putting us in the midst of something evil and unnerving in the middle of the Southwest U.S. desert.
