RCMA BOD Interview with Jodi Thomas

Codes & Compliance Manager at Henry Company

What is your industry background and role today?
I've spent the last ten years in the construction industry, specializing in building code compliance. As the Codes & Compliance Manager at Carlisle Weatherproofing Technologies, I oversee test programs to evaluate the performance of a diverse product portfolio, including Henry’s Roof Coatings. My role involves ensuring these products meet industry standards and building code requirements and then listing them with different certification bodies. I also represent my company on several industry organizations and ASTM committees.

Why is it important to serve on the RCMA Board of Directors?
Serving on the RCMA Board of Directors is a mutually beneficial opportunity. It keeps me current with the latest building codes, policy changes, standards updates, and new technology. I get to share my firsthand knowledge of coating requirements and any issues or gaps in test methods. Plus, it's a fantastic platform to collaborate with industry leaders, influence regulatory decisions, and help develop best practices. This role lets me advocate for advancements that benefit the entire industry and ensure our products meet the highest standards of quality and performance.

What value does RCMA bring to the industry?
RCMA is incredibly important to our industry because it champions our shared interests. The association provides top-notch education and training programs, keeping everyone up to date with the latest advancements and techniques. RCMA also backs initiatives that drive innovation and enhance product performance. Plus, our meetings offer great networking opportunities, helping professionals connect, collaborate, and share knowledge. All these efforts ensure that our industry remains strong and continues to grow and thrive.

What do you like to do when you’re not immersed in roof coatings?
When I'm not immersed in roof coatings, you'll find me enjoying quality time with my family. I love exploring hiking trails, relaxing on a beach, or diving into a good book, especially anything about WWII history. I'm also a bit of an 80's music trivia whiz—I dare you to challenge me!
