Ray Semko, aka The D*I*C*E Man, is a security educator and a professional public speaker who is nationally known for his popular and motivating D*I*C*E (Defensive Information to Counter Everything) security awareness briefings which he has been providing to American audiences since 1989. Semko has over 40 years of valuable security and counterintelligence experience through his years of government service in the US military and Intelligence Community, primarily as a Counterintelligence Special Agent. While serving in the US government, Ray Semko’s highly informative and entertaining D*I*C*E briefings that he created became very popular and were in demand throughout the US government and government contractors. He has has presented D*I*C*E all around the world – often to standing room only audiences. Semko’s briefing is the only security briefing people still remember after many years. Since retiring from government service in July 2006, he has devoted to being a full-time professional public speaker providing his signature D*I*C*E briefings. Semko’s rapid-fire, no-nonsense approach focuses on the message: Americans need to be constantly vigilant and responsible for their own protection. He exposes America’s adversaries, their targets and methods of operation and reveals how to prevent these adversaries from exploiting our nation’s security and your organization’s security by effectively protecting classified, proprietary and sensitive information. He motivates his audience to rededicate themselves to their families and jobs, to live with honor and integrity and to do the right thing when no one is looking. Semko’s goal is to keep you safe, your family safe and your organization safe. When these are safe, secure and strong, then America is also. As an interesting side note, while serving an overseas tour with the US Army in Vicenza, Italy from 1976 to 1984, Semko became the first head coach of the Italian National Team of American-style football players. He taught them the rules, proper techniques, self-discipline and served as the motivator to get the best out of them. This led his Italian national team winning the 1983 European Championship. He also coached his own team, the Milan Rhinos, to three Super Bowl Championship in their American Football Italia (AIFA) league. Semko told his team before every championship game, “If you win this game, for the rest of your lives you will always be a champion.” His skills in motivating people to be the best continue to this day. Ray Semko's famous Defensive Information to Counter Everything (D*I*C*E) security awareness presentations are for any kind of organization, company, federal, state or local government/military/agency, school, university, church, association, civic group, etc — ANYONE who needs a security/threat awareness wake-up call and how to take action against threats.

At 19, Jeremy Poincenot was your typical college sophomore. Friends, sports, fraternity and most importantly, perfect 20/20 vision. Then it happened, no warning, no time to prepare. Life began to blur. Over the next few months, Jeremy lost central vision in his right eye, followed closely by his left. The diagnosis: a rare genetic disorder called Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), a disease that affects a mere 100 people in the U.S. each year with no treatment or cure in sight. At first, Jeremy thought losing his vision meant forfeiting his life. But he soon learned that with every challenge comes an opportunity for growth. When Jeremy lost his central vision, he thought the game of golf he loved was over. But with some hard work, dedication, and the support of his family and friends, he quickly learned that his golfing career had just begun. At 20 years old and with his Dad as his guide, Jeremy competed in and won the 2010 World Blind Golf Championship with a dramatic chip-in in a playoff. They have since gone on to win 6 National Championships, an Australian Blind Open, and a second World Blind Golf Championship. In 2011, Jeremy was honored as the San Diego Hall of Champions Challenged Athlete of the Year. Like all things, it’s the most difficult trials that shape who we are—and Jeremy is a better athlete and person because of this sport. Now, Jeremy strives to raise awareness of LHON, and along with the help of his friends, they have created the C.U.R.E. (Cycling Under Reduced Eyesight) Ride, an annual fundraising bike ride that has raised over $250,000 for LHON research. Their goal is to raise a million. Today, Jeremy is an Inspirational Speaker traveling the world, sharing his story to inspire audiences to take control of life and turn trauma into triumph. Jeremy is not your ordinary motivational speaker. With a powerful personal narrative, a little wit and a strong inspirational message, he has made it his mission to help his audiences rise up to their biggest obstacles and see them as opportunities. Jeremy’s objective when he steps in front of an audience is not to dictate how to succeed in life; it’s to convince individuals that independence is good, while interdependence is great. He speaks from experience and has discovered that with a focus on the good, key insights, and the determination to persist through the challenges, anything is possible. Jeremy has had the privilege of being featured on ABC's 20/20, ESPN.com, CNN’s “Great Big Story” and MTV's True Life and has spoken for many prestigious companies including Aflac, Honda, John Hancock, Kaiser Permanente, Wells Fargo and many more.

Five years ago, Cheryl Meyer discovered she was suffering from inflammation and autoimmune disease. She found a functional MD, actively searched out, purged, and replaced toxins in her life, and returned to wellness. Thus began an odyssey that culminated in Meyer’s writing the manual she wishes she’d had when she got sick. In her award winning book It Feels Good to Feel Good: Learn to Eliminate Toxins, Reverse Inflammation and Feel Great Again, Meyer explains toxins are everywhere and impacting our health, the health of our children, and the health of our earth. “It’s all about toxic load. Each toxin that is eliminated is one step closer to health.” Meyer continues: “Reduce the toxins in your life. You will be healthier. I teach you where the toxins are and what to replace them with. When is the last time you felt good? Take your life back today. What are you waiting for? “ Cheryl has a BA from the University of California-Berkeley and is a certified health coach, Cheryl M Health Muse, from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.
