Each month, we recognize two team members who have gone above and beyond in exemplifying our core values. For February, we are honored to celebrate Jeff Young and Jim Oddie as our Cultural Collaborators.

Jeff Young

Director, Program Development

Jeff Young, director of Program Development, consistently embodies Variphy’s values of impact, teamwork, trust, enjoyability, and dedication. He played an integral role in launching key partnerships in 2023 and continues to build vital relationships for the company. Jeff delivers honest assessments, meets his commitments, and leads with a positive attitude that makes him a joy to work with.


“He doesn’t just tell us what we want to hear, but instead, what we need to hear. It’s incredibly enjoyable working with Jeff, who, as a truly dedicated professional, always delivers on his commitments and is never afraid to grab the ball and run with it, yet never seems to take himself too seriously.”

Layne Hoo, CEO

Jim Oddie

VP, Finance and General Counsel

Jim Oddie, VP of Finance and General Counsel, is commended for his wide-ranging impact across legal, finance, accounting, and HR operations. Jim’s tireless commitment to ensuring Variphy’s operations run smoothly exemplifies our core value of trustworthiness. He is always eager to lend a hand wherever needed to drive the company’s success.


“Jim embodies our culture and is the definition of trustworthy. He wants to be in every meeting and is always asking how he can help. Doing what’s best for the company and our shareholder value is always top of mind for him.”

Danny Tran, President

We extend our sincere appreciation to Jeff Young and Jim Oddie for their exceptional work driving Variphy’s culture and growth. Their example inspires all of us to uphold our core values as we continue to build a company we are proud of. Congratulations to our well-deserved February Cultural Collaborators!
