ENT 601-50 / Subject Matter Expert, Corey Bryson
Interview with:
Corey Bryson
Owner and Master Brewer
Balsam Falls Brewing Company, Sylva NC
Conducted by Devon Nease
• How’s business this time of year?
Busier now that the spring session has started at WCU. January / February are usually slower than other months. Spring, summer, and fall are the busiest times if the year.
• Tell me how you got into brewing beer?
Started home-brewing as a hobby with a friend while living in Tampa Fla. Joined a home-brew club and their brewing competition team, then became a certified craft beer judge for the competitions. The Tampa Fla area had a very vibrant craft beer and brewing scene that was a lot of fun to be a part of.
ENT 630 Merida Bohanemus SME Interview of Selia Busey owner of Bliss Births Midwifery Services LLC
This past week I was blessed in interviewing Selia Busey, owner and operator at Bliss Births Midwifery Services LLC. in El Paso, Texas. I met Selia through another subject matter expert (SME) interview I conducted this past summer of Rachel Curtis, a doula here in El Paso. When I first met Selia I was immediately drawn to her, she is intelligent, very down to earth and confident. I just couldn’t wait to interview her on her homebirth midwifery business and its successful growth.
Selia is a home-birth midwife, she owns a private practice. She is the only employee, although she does take on apprentices and sometimes hires independent contractors for certain services. Selia comes from a strong family where her mother was a small business owner of a gymnastics gym when she was growing up. Additionally, growing up on a farm significantly helped introduce her to birth and its natural processes. As long as she can remember she has been interested in birth. After more than 8 years of schooling and training, she passed the board to be a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) and Licensed Midwife (LM) in both Texas and New Mexico. She started Bliss Births nearly three years ago, after following her dream of being able to help women birthing in their homes, setting her own protocols, as well as, the flexibility to set her own schedule (as much as possible when dealing with births).
