jody dazio headshotJody Dazio was born and raised in the suburbs of Detroit and moved to Florida in 2007 to pursue an opportunity to build a multi-family resort on Siesta Key. She then chose to further her career as a Construction Project Manager by attending college and graduating with a Bachelor of Science Construction Management in 2011 and Master of Business Administration in 2014. While a student and taking care of her family, she nimbly navigated all facets of the industry from Receptionist to Director of Operations during the recession and beyond. In 2016, she received a call from a recruiter looking to fill a spot at HBK CPAs and Consultants, a multidisciplinary financial services firm that focuses on small to medium-sized businesses. There she could merge her passions: construction, accounting, and helping people reach his or her goals into the role of her dreams. She is a Senior Associate specializing in corporate, payroll, and sales taxes, job costing, and construction accounting.

In her free time, she enjoys exploring with her husband, Nick, roller-skating, cuddling with her two labs, Jake and Luna, and video chatting with her son, Vinny, who is a video game lighting designer in Phoenix.
