Nancy Leve helps individuals and families preserve their unique life stories and memories using personalized Zoom interviews. Nancy is the founder of Video Journals Online, where she conducts Oprah-style interviews, capturing not just the narrative but also the nuances of facial expressions, hand gestures, tone of voice, and laughter. I had the pleasure of meeting Nancy through one of Chris Gittings’ Corner Call networking events. When we met 1-on-1, Nancy shared with me about how she created a time capsule for her grandfather so that she could better understand his journey and always have a way to check in with her history - makes me think a lot about my efforts to preserve my Dad’s history. My aim is to introduce Nancy to all my contacts in the elderly care industry. I look forward to our continued professional relationship and the potential synergies it can bring. Thank you, Nancy.
ASKS: Nancy's networking focus is on connecting with professionals serving seniors, such as estate attorneys, senior living communities, and cancer support groups. If you're in these fields or know someone who is, Nancy would love to connect and explore potential collaborations or partnerships.

Sergei is the Owner of Galeano Consulting LLC, where he provides financial leadership focusing on driving and executing more effective strategies, processes, and procedures.

Sergei's professionalism and deep knowledge in his field make him a valuable connection, and I look forward to exploring how we can support each other's businesses. Thank you, Sergei.
