Jodie
Customer Service Attendant
Jodie joined the Australia Zoo Receptionite crew in June 2009. After the initial shell shock of working in the wildest place on earth, Jodie has settled in really well and loves ensuring all our patrons have the correct information to maximise their day! Every day at the Zoo is the ultimate wildlife adventure and Jodie loves being a part of the team!
Coming from the hospitality/building industry has given Jodie the perfect preparation to enter our guest relations team. Being a Taurean also gives Jodie the determination, reliability and persistence to get the job done.
When Jodie is enjoying her free time she loves hanging out with the two males in her life, her fiancé Tyler and the four-legged kind; her dog Busta. Jodie enjoys restoring her Valiant, camping at the beach and four wheel driving.
