From 1986-1998, she was an assistant corporation counsel with the City of Chicago Law Department, working in the Appeals Division (1986-89), the Labor and Personnel Division (1989-93), and the Labor Division (1993-97). Professor Hodge then spent a year and a half as an Administrative Law Judge with the Illinois Human Rights Commission.
From 2000-2003, she was an associate with Chicago-based firm Neal Murdock & LeRoy, where she litigated, consulted on, and mediated employment and labor matters. Immediately prior to coming to John Marshall, Professor Hodge was a writing specialist at the DePaul University College of Law, where she created a Writers' Workshop for 1Ls, taught legal writing, and supervised the teaching assistants in the writing center.
She came to John Marshall as a visiting professor in 2004 and joined the full-time faculty in 2006. She teaches Lawyering Skills, Appellate Writing, Disability Law, Employment Law, Contracts II, and Alternative Dispute Resolution, and is associate director of the moot court program.
