Imagine being held at gunpoint by police and having no idea why. That's exactly what happened to this woman after police mistakenly thought she was driving a stolen car. 

A world pandemic is happening. Everyone is on lock down. One inmate who has already been in lock down mode for years describes the world he can't be part of.

After being hit and rear-ended twice in the same week, this Sheriff's Deputy who monitors the local highway has a message to drivers who fail to move over for flashing lights on the side of the road. 

This former KFC employee doesn't want her job back, she just wants her story to be heard. She takes us through the roller coaster of an experience she had in hopes to reach other people who may be going through the same thing, and to help them stand up for their rights and what they believe in. 

This bright little girl is making school a little easier for those who may have a hard time adjusting to virtual learning. Her big heart is contagious and will make you want to go out and Do Something Good!

It's snowing in Wisconsin... again. How do you make another snow story interesting? I think I found one way...

Two women form an unlikely friendship over a controversial topic: politics. 

All the feels. All of them. This is much more than just a playhouse. 

Sam made me feel like I need to take some more history classes. And his unique hobby made me care about something I normally would not care for by giving life back to those who are no longer alive.  

This spunky gal is exactly who I want to be like when I grow up. Such a role model. I promise you will end this video with a smile. 

We all have things we want for Christmas. This man wants something so simple... something we can all give him for one last Christmas. 

An update to the man people across the country probably know or have heard of by now. The man pictured in this video wanted as many Christmas cards as possible. It was his dying wish. Through the power of social media and the kindness in people's hearts, Gene Weittenhiller got all that and more. 

This is one of those stories that could have been a VOSOT instead of a PKG. But I found a good character and made it into more than that. This kind custodian is working for two days by himself to scrub this school from top to bottom to prevent kids from getting sick. 

Climate change impacts everything, even things you don't think about on a regular basis... like maple syrup. 

Delivering her first child with her mom and husband by her side was always in the plans for Cassie Bonde. But COVID-19 and hospital restrictions had other plans in mind. 

A tracked pkg that I had to be creative with for b-roll after the Madison Police Union issued a letter of No Confidence in the Mayor and neither side would give a comment on camera. 

The most creative, punny, imaginative, effective road signs you will ever see. 

Creativity at its finest. No, I'm not speaking about my own shooting and editing. The Piano Gal makes some of the most unique furniture out of grand pianos. 

Some of the best stories involve twists, turns and often, redemption. This story has all of that. This Madison woman appeared in national headlines about the timeless lesson she learned after returning a book to a New York library... 63 years late. 

Mercedes is the pop tab queen! And might just be one of the cutest kids you'll ever see. Watch how this queen is beating world records. 

A story shot on Valentine's Day... but this story is not about candy and flowers. Get the tissues. My heart broke and never fully healed from this one. 

An entire story about cow poop. My life is complete. 

If this mom doesn't win Mother's Day, I don't know what else will. 

This is something that meant a lot to the people of Madison. For years, people wondered what happened to the spire of the church that burned down years ago. I learned a man who cares deeply for all of Wisconsin is preserving history, by dismantling it. 

Online shopping becomes more and more popular each year, especially around the holidays. UPS alone is expecting to deliver 750 million packages this holiday season. Here's an inside look at the workload they're dealing with at a local UPS Store. 

There's a new homecoming king every year... but this year is special. Draven Hallam didn't win... until he did.

COVID-19 has kept us all socially distant but a Lake Mills photographer shows us that that does not mean we have to be socially isolated. Through his lens, he captures this unprecedented time in history and shows us how our time at home is good way to spend more time with the people we care about most. 

This was supposed to be a VO, but ended up turning as a tracked PKG. Added some creativity to squeeze as much out of it as possible. 

A city council member forgot to mute his microphone during a public zoom meeting and called a local activist a c$%!. This story followed the public backlash he got from it. 

Everyone loves a feel good feature and kids who are not camera shy!

We all take things for granted sometimes. This story makes you think about just how lucky you really are with the bare minimum. 

A Memorial Day Ceremony unlike any other. Fort Atkinson High School not only honors the fallen alumni who died serving in the armed forces, but also celebrates the seniors who chose to enlist in the military upon graduating. 

It's not too often people stay at the same job for more than five decades. But one bus driver for the Reedsburg School District did. Retiring at 81 years old, the wheels that have been going round and round on his bus for 54 years have reached their final destination

Thousands of people are stuck in limbo waiting for the unemployment office to respond to their claims. The Wisconsin DWD  is under tremendous pressure while all these people scramble to figure out how they will pay their bills. 

A 20-year-old man in Madison is teaching people that you don't have to wait for happy things to happen. You can create your own... with something as simple as a box of chalk.

Most people roll their eyes at dad jokes but one Madison couple is using it to bring people together. Their fun pandemic project turned into something much more than they ever could have imagined. This one has all the laughs and feels you'd never expect from corny jokes!
