Beth Bodah

Beth Bodah’s love of the water began long before her career in finance — growing up in New York’s Thousand Islands region, where boats weren’t a luxury but a way of life, and summers were spent on the St. Lawrence River. That early connection to boating and the marine lifestyle has stayed with her ever since, and now finds its natural home in her role as Director of Finance at Spencer Christopher Ship & Yacht Brokerage.

Beth brings more than 30 years of financial and lending expertise to the position. She spent 21 years as a Senior Lending Optimization Consultant with TruStage (CUNA Mutual Group), where she served as the organization’s Military Credit Union Subject Matter Expert and built deep expertise across major financial platforms. Earlier in her career, she was a District Manager at Citigroup, ranked #1 nationally within her first six months. She is Prosci ADKAR certified in change management and holds professional credentials from Cornell and Georgetown.

Beyond her corporate career, Beth has always been a hands-on investor and business owner — co-owning a restaurant, managing a multi-property rental portfolio, and navigating real estate deals from the ground up. That owner’s instinct for cash flow, risk, and value gives her a practical edge in overseeing the financial side of high-value vessel transactions, trust accounting, and brokerage operations.

Today, Beth calls Wilmington, North Carolina home, where she lives with her husband and has traded the Thousand Islands for the Intracoastal Waterway. Still, the pull of the water never left — and neither has her eye for a good boat. When she’s not managing the numbers at Spencer Christopher, she can be found golfing or enjoying life along the North Carolina coast.
