Wed Mar 05, 202512:00pm - 01:15pm Weekly Meeting: Jamie Winsted: Wisconsin Herd
Hide Details

Welcome Jamie Winsted.
I currently lead the Wisconsin Herd Public Relations and Community Relations department.

I work as the primary media contact while also writing press releases, post-game recaps, game notes, and coordinating all interview requests as well as the publisher of the Wisconsin Herd’s season media guide and team game day program. For the Community Relations department I work to connect the Herd with the community through donation requests, mascot & player appearances, and coordinating nonprofit involvement in theme nights through theme jerseys auctions, tabling, recognition, and pre-game programming. I helped create and launch successful Wisconsin Herd community outreach platforms including the annual “Run with the Herd 5K/1K” and the Wisconsin Herd Golf Outing fundraisers.

In October 2021, I started my career with the Wisconsin Herd as a PR/CR Intern before being promoted to full-time in my current position. Prior to the Herd, I filled many roles with experience in social media, broadcast tv and marketing.

During my time at UW-Milwaukee I was awarded the “Best Sports Story” by the Milwaukee Press Club. I played an instrumental role in helping the Wisconsin Herd win the NBA G League Franchise of the Year (2022-23), NBA G League President’s Choice Award (2021-22) and was an integral role in planning the Wisconsin Herd Black History Month Celebration which won NBA G League Promotion of the Year (2022-23).

Wed Mar 26, 202512:00pm - 01:15pm Weekly Meeting: Adam & Suz Borowitz: Hospice (no longer a 4-letter word)
Hide Details

What is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is a service for people with serious illnesses who choose not to get (or continue) treatment to cure or control their illness. People may choose to enroll in hospice care if the treatment is unlikely to be effective or if continuing it has become too burdensome. Hospice aims to provide comfort and peace to help improve quality of life for the person nearing death. It also helps family members cope with their loved one’s illness and can also provide support to the family after the person dies, including help with grieving, sometimes called bereavement care. Medicare reimburses for hospice services when a physician determines that a patient has a life-expectancy of 6 months or less.

Many people with a serious illness use hospice care. A serious illness may be defined as a disease or condition with a high risk of death or one that negatively affects a person’s quality of life or ability to perform daily tasks. It may cause symptoms or have treatments that affect daily life and lead to caregiver stress. Examples of serious illnesses include dementia, cancer, heart failure, and chronic obstructive lung disease.

Wed Jun 04, 202512:00pm - 01:15pm Weekly Meeting: Dr Angelo Capozzi: Rotaplast
Hide Details

Dr. Angelo Capozzi is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and co-founder of Rotaplast International. Dr. Capozzi was born in Solvay, New York. He is married to Louise Armanetti Capozzi, and they have three grown children and one grandchild. He is a proud Notre Dame Alumni having received his Bachelor of Science in 1956. He received his medical degree from the Stritch School of Medicine at Loyola University in Chicago, then completed his residency in general surgery training at St. Francis Hospital in Evanston, Illinois, and a plastic surgery specialty at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.

Dr. Capozzi was a Captain in the United States Air Force and served as Chief of Plastic Surgery at David Grant Air Force Hospital in Fairfield, California. In 1968, he went into private practice at St. Francis Memorial Hospital remaining there for 30 years. He left private practice in 1998 to become Chief of Plastic Surgery at Shriners Hospital for Children in Sacramento, California, retiring in 2008. Dr. Capozzi has also served as Director of the Bothin Burn Center, Chief of Plastic Surgery at Saint Mary’s Hospital, Associate Clinical Professor in the Department of Surgery at University of California-San Francisco (UCSF), and as an advisory panel member for the California Medical Association.

In 1971, Dr. Capozzi became a member of the San Francisco Rotary Club and now belongs to Tiburon/Belvedere Rotary Club. In 1992, Dr. Capozzi and PDG Peter Lagarias founded Rotaplast International in collaboration with the Rotary Club of San Francisco to facilitate a surgical program in La Serena, Chile. This initial historic mission to treat children with the cleft lip and palate anomaly, who would otherwise not receive surgical intervention, took place in January of 1993.

As a project of the Rotary Club of San Francisco, and for the first three years of its existence, Rotaplast completed one surgical mission a year. The following two years, Rotaplast completed two missions a year. In 1996, Rotaplast became a separate non-profit corporation and has since consistently expanded its number of annual missions. In December 2023, Rotaplast sent its 258th mission and to date has served over 21,000 patients. Twenty-six countries have hosted Rotaplast teams, including Vietnam, Colombia, Chile, Argentina, Mexico, Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru, Guatemala, Ecuador, El Salvador, Romania, China, Ethiopia, India, Nepal, Brazil, Bangladesh, Mali, Togo, Liberia, Dominican Republic, Egypt, Tanzania, Myanmar, and the Philippines.

Dr. Capozzi now devotes his practice to humanitarian medicine and international service. To date, he has been on 76 international surgical trips with Rotaplast, including Sylhet five times and eight trips to Bangladesh. Dr. Capozzi currently serves as Rotaplast’s Medical Director and International Committee Chair.
