My process is called VIDEOSTORYOLOGY where I conduct one-on-one video and audio interviews with Subject Matter Experts over the internet in high definition. The objective is always to capture the passion, conviction, and wisdom of real people as they share their stories. These interviews build libraries for blogs, podcasts, or E-learning courses.

People have gifts that need to be shared to inspire and serve others. I have the gift of telling their stories.

With 14 years of experience as a basketball official, Matt will tackle the question "Why would anyone want this job?", while also providing a behind-the-scenes perspective on a referee's life, exploring the national shortage of officials, and featuring a "You Make the Call" video segment.

Dr Byron, a retired AF Colonel, had a distinguished career in the Dental Corps as a periodontist.  

Founded in 1841, Woodland Cemetery and Arboretum is one of the nation’s oldest rural garden cemeteries. Its natural setting was a dramatic departure from traditional church burial grounds at the time. The cemetary provides a unique insight to some of Dayton's most interesting history.

Inventors from Dayton are responsible for a wide range of ideas that have changed the world. At one time Dayton was known as the city of a Thousand Factories. James Ritty’s invention of the cash register led to NCR. Kettering’s automobile self-starter led to Delco. Thomas Midgley’s leaded gasoline led to Ethyl Corporation. And the Wright Brothers’ airplane…well that led to nearly everything else. Many creative minds from Dayton shaped the world we live in today.   

Matt Wahrhaftig will provide a look into how the Kettering Health Foundation is driving innovation and improving lives right here in our communities. In this brief overview, Matt will highlight how charitable giving is fueling groundbreaking advancements in patient care, including two remarkable technologies: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Ion Robotic Bronchoscopy.

These aren't just medical buzzwords—they're real tools making real differences for patients in our region. Come hear how generosity is shaping the future of health, and why the most exciting medical breakthroughs might be happening closer to home than you think.

Under Krista's leadership, Freedom Whiskey has become known not only for its award-winning bourbon but also for its commitment to supporting veteran-focused causes, as well as mental health organizations, and bringing people together through shared values of freedom, resilience, support, and comradery.
