Cody's passion for chemistry, particularly organic chemistry, began at a young age. He reminisced, "I was fascinated with chemistry, especially organic chemistry." Experimenting with fermentation and distillation, he vividly recalled, "I built my first still in my parent's basement when I was 16 years old, unbeknownst to my parents." Despite keeping his early endeavors a secret from his parents, Cody's interest in distillation only grew stronger over the years.
