Meryl Streep and Jodi Binstock - Emmy award nominee
JODI graduated from film school at NYU, where she began her career in theatre, film, television and commercials. Soon after, she directed the award winning short film A Limited Engagement. After moving to L.A., Jodi received the coveted Disney Directing Fellowship, working in both multi and single camera episodic television. She's directed episodes of ABC's Boy Meets World and You Wish.

Recently, Jodi directed a thriller, I'll Be Watching starring Janel Parrish (Pretty Little Liars) which aired on Lifetime Worldwide. She is currently in pre-production on the second film Blue Waters from the four-part book series by Christi Walsh scheduled to shoot in Spring of 2020. Jodi is working to get her original screenplay #Sibtrip! into production in 2021. She also wrote (adapted) the screenplay and will direct the YA film, All You Get Is Me based on the award-winning novel by Yvonne Prinz with Demi Lovato as Executive Producer. Over the past few seasons, Jodi has been a Producing Director for the Syfy/Netflix hit Z Nation directing multiple episodes and has penned several of those she directed.

Proud to be a one of the 7% of female "Helmers" in Hollywood, Jodi is as comfortable with comedy as she is with drama. Jodi's romantic Christmas comedy A Snowglobe Christmas is an annual favorite starring Alicia Witt and Donald Faison and her poignant comedy Call Waiting, was the Official Selection of 9 major film festivals and was lauded as the WINNER of the Jury Prize for BEST COMEDY at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival as well as BEST COMEDY at Tiburon International Film Festival. Jodi also has a long list of producer credits to her name including Lisa Kudrow's Web Therapy (Emmy Nominee) and the Netflix hit Black Summer.

Jodi lives in Los Angeles and of all the work she's proud of, foremost is her daughter, Logan, who is a Creative Producing major at Chapman University, Dodge School of Film and Television
