I write weekly "Personal Journey" stories that publish in the Sunday edition of the Dayton Daily News. I'm seeking subjects for these articles. If you or someone you know lives, works, volunteers in or otherwise has a connection to our coverage areas of Montgomery, Miami, Greene, Clark or Northern Warren Counties in Ohio, please reach out. As long as you have a story you'd like to share with our readers, I can consider it! Please know that pictures are required for these articles and I will need 4 - 5 that help tell the story in order to publish. Thanks!

For our community partners, the first playground we built in Ohio taught me something I'll never forget: joy scales when people make together. I grew up designing small play spaces, but that volunteer day in Greene County changed everything. We had parents, teens, and grandparents tightening bolts side by side, and by sunset, we'd built more than a structure; we'd built pride.

We always capture four or five photos that tell that story: the blank lot, the first beam raised, the crowd cheering on the inaugural slide, and the quiet evening after everyone's gone home. "When you watch a child climb a structure you helped create," I tell my team, "you understand community isn't funded, it's assembled.

I love the Personal Journey concept, but I'll step back unless there's a bona fide Dayton tie that your readers deserve local roots. If that changes, I'm glad to share how a career pivot into AI marketing taught me to ship small, learn fast, and help others do the same with photos that show the messy whiteboards behind the polished launches.
