First, we sit down with Kaitlyn Gallo, Miss Ahwatukee 2025 and Arizona State University student (Business & Entrepreneurial Leadership). In “Sweat the Stress: Promoting Mental Wellness Through Movement,” Kaitlyn shares how fitness supports mental health, how public speaking and marketing shaped her leadership, and her long-term goal to launch a coffee venture as a trained barista.

Next, we chat with Donovan Reese, Founder of MyRentDoor, about why great property management is really about people and relationships. He breaks down how their team supports renters and owners—and outlines an eye-catching referral program: earn 2% of rent collected for 2 years for each client you refer. We also have some fun with a “Longest Kiss” sidebar.

Finally, we meet Janet Collins, Teacher at Summit School, Spanish language expert, and founder of Los Niños Spanish School (est. 18 years). Janet reflects on choosing Ahwatukee two decades ago, favorite local eats (Vero’s, Florencia’s, El Fogon), hiking the ever-changing mountain trails, and what she rates a perfect 10 (Hawaii).

She credits her late father as a lasting source of wisdom and sums up “home” in three words: Family, Gratitude, Love.
