Kody Downey

General Lines Agent

Kody is a General Lines Agent and Office Manager at the Partners main office in Schulenburg. With 18 years of experience in the industry, insurance is practically in her blood—she got her start in the business thanks to her mother, who has been an agent since she was 17.

Holding licenses in Property & Casualty as well as Life, Accident, Health, and HMO, Kody views the insurance world as a "moving target." She prioritizes continuing education to stay ahead of industry trends and ensure she’s always at the top of her game. For Kody, the most important piece of advice she can give to anyone looking to protect what matters most is simple but crucial: truly understand your coverages.

At Partners, Kody is dedicated to being a reliable resource for her clients. She believes in doing the heavy lifting—from monitoring coverage gaps to sending proactive payment reminders—so her clients don't have to stress. Rather than just selling a policy, she guides clients through every detail so they always know exactly what they are paying for.

In her role as Office Manager, Kody is the glue that keeps the Schulenburg office running smoothly (which, as she jokes, includes being the official keeper of the toilet paper). While she's still getting to know the local area, you can usually find her enjoying a good cup of coffee at Tillie’s.
