Early Life and Education

He grew up in Howell with his older brother Paulie and younger sister Angelina, developing a competitive spirit through sports and family challenges.

Calafiore attended Monmouth University on a soccer scholarship, later transferring to Temple University, where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from the Fox School of Business and Management in 2013.

He is of Italian-American descent and was raised in a Christian household.

Career

Cody Christopher Calafiore kicked off his public career as a college soccer player at Temple University, where his athletic drive led to a brief MLS trial with the Columbus Crew before an ankle injury shifted his path toward business roles in sales and event staffing.

At 23, he auditioned for Big Brother 16 in 2014, joining the Bomb Squad alliance and forming the secret Hitmen pact with Derrick Levasseur, which carried him to a runner-up spot behind his ally in a 7-2 vote.

His social savvy and competition wins—two Heads of Household and two Power of Vetoes—earned immediate fan love, transitioning him into modeling gigs with Soul Artist Management and features in Winq and Men’s Fitness magazines.

Calafiore’s profile soared with his 2020 return for Big Brother 22: All-Stars, where he dominated as the season’s puppet master, winning five competitions and evicting threats through subtle manipulations within the Committee, culminating in a flawless 9-0 jury victory over Enzo Palumbo for the $500,000 prize.

Post-win, he dove into acting with supporting roles in the rom-com Set It Up (2018) alongside Zoey Deutch, the indie drama What Happened Last Night (2016), and the heartfelt Welcome to Hope (2021), while balancing modeling campaigns for LOVE Magazine.

His 2023 stint on The Traitors tested his deception skills as a Faithful, reaching the finale before a narrow loss, and he added festive flair to Big Brother: Reindeer Games that year, showcasing his enduring franchise pull.

Calafiore channels his expertise into The Winner’s Circle podcast, co-hosted with Levasseur since 2021, where they break down episodes with humor and hindsight, drawing thousands of listeners weekly.

As a certified personal trainer, he promotes fitness through Twitch streams and social endorsements, while real estate pursuits with Keller Williams Realty ground his entrepreneurial side.

His blend of on-screen charisma and off-screen authenticity continues to influence aspiring competitors, with upcoming projects hinting at more acting depth and advocacy for mental health in high-pressure environments.
