Cody Nelson works for the Fleet Week San Diego Foundation as the Event Coordinator. Cody’s responsibilities include coordinating the Sea & Air Parade, Star Spangled Salute and the Coronado Speed Festival. Although she enjoys all three events, Cody says her favorite one would have to be the Coronado Speed Festival. She has been with the foundation since January 2007.
