Leilani Baugh with Magnolia Street Wine Lounge and Kitchen

00:00 /

Chef Leilani Baugh is the executive chef and owner of Roux and Vine Catering and her newest offering Magnolia Street Wine Lounge & Kitchen, named after the street she grew up on.

A native of Oakland, California, Leilani found her calling to the culinary world in her youth. Raised by her two grandmothers, she learned at an early age that food and hospitality were the way to people’s hearts. With one grandmother, a Chinese immigrant (who only spoke Cantonese), and the other a Southern housekeeper, she embraced both worlds by ultimately fusing the two.

In August 2020, she opened her first brick and mortar in West Oakland, Magnolia Street Wine Lounge & Kitchen, underneath the historic California Hotel.

Dorothy Bishop trained at the Yale School of Music in Opera. She immediately moved to NYC and later joined the First Broadway National Tour of Terrence McNally’s Tony award-winning play “Master Class” starring Faye Dunaway.

“Bishop has New York audiences in stitches”

— New York Post

“Novel and hysterical! She can really sing and she NAILS it!” –Huffington Post

Blessed with a voice capable of opera, Broadway, and pop, she creates funny but appreciative portraits of the women we love. – Michael Musto

In the smash Off-Broadway hit Spamilton, Dorothy Bishop ruthlessly impersonates divas from Liza Minnelli to Barbra Streisand, with Bernadette Peters and Patti LuPone along the way.

But Spamilton hardly scratches the surface of Dorothy’s talent for mimicry. In her fast-paced one-woman show “The Dozen Divas,” she does Liza and Barbra… and Stevie and Adele and Cher… and, well, too many others to mention!

Dorothy is primed to dazzle you on Monday, June 26th at 7 pm at the Metropolitan Room as she launches into her third year of “The Dozen Divas,” featuring her classic impersonations as well as a brand-new diva or two.

“The Dozen Divas” has already been nominated for two Broadway World Awards and two Mac Awards for a best musical comedy show. In between stints with Spamilton, Dorothy squeezed in a triumphant Mexican tour of “Divas” during which she headlined at the beautiful Red Room in Puerto Vallarta.

She was spotted in “The Dozen Divas” by the music director of Spamilton, Broadway conductor Fred Barton.

He was bowled over: “Dorothy’s innate sunny sense of humor and goodheartedness transcends all – but her true secret weapon lies in the sky-high quality and range of her own native, superlative singing.”

Raised in Pittsburgh, PA. Bachelor’s and Master’s in Mechanical Engineering from M.I.T. MBA from University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Worked in manufacturing at General Electric, at a startup automotive supplier, as an EVP for diamond tooling manufacturer, and ran Consumer Products Division at Rain Bird in Tucson. Moved to Tucson for Rain Bird in 2005. Left Rain Bird and started Starfish Care Homes with wife, Kris, a Nurse Practitioner in 2012. Live in Tucson Country Club since we moved here in 2005. Three kids, Bernie 23, a Biomedical Engineer at Brainlab in San Diego, Max 21, in Environmental Engineering and Political Science at ASU, and Sophie, 17, at CFHS.

About your business:

Kris and Ben started Starfish Care Homes in 2012. After looking at possible acquisitions, we decided we could do better by starting from scratch ourselves. We bought a beautiful home, renovated it for Assisted Living, and opened it for business in September of 2012. Over the years, we’ve bought, renovated, and opened more homes. Recently, we added a community of 8 homes in Northwest Tucson. We’ve grown Starfish from one home with no employees to 14 homes across 6 locations, employing over 70 people and caring for over 100 residents.

At Starfish, we work to do a few things very well. Most importantly, we hire and keep nice, professional Managers and Caregivers. Good people want to work in an organization that upholds high standards, particularly when caring for people. We provide our staff with tools, resources, and a positive environment to do their jobs well. Their jobs are difficult, so all the support we provide really matters. Additionally, we provide a clean, attractive home for residents to live and staff to work. We make home-cooked food with copious fresh fruit, vegetables and deserts. The last important input is communication. We need to be on the same page with families and resident representatives about subtle changes in condition, so together we make decisions and take actions to keep our residents in the best possible condition.

About the Business

Serenity Senior Services is a locally owned company that assists families and their aging loved ones find placement throughout Southern Arizona. Danny Klein and Tom Pothoff started Serenity Senior Services 5 years ago and have assisted over 800 families with their long-term care needs. We have a selective vetting criterion for the senior living communities and adult care homes in which we place. Since we started our business, we have vetted over 300 senior living options in Southern Arizona and we work with only 45-50 places. Our motto is that we are “Doctor Recommended, Family-Approved” as we partner with over 180 local primary care/geriatric physicians to help their patients find the right senior living option. Serenity Senior Services offers placement options for Independent Living, Assisted Living, or Memory Care.

Our placement services are completely free to you, our clients, as we get paid by the selected senior living community. If our clients choose a place that we recommend, we get a referral fee from the selected community. However, we do need to be the first to introduce a client to the community in order for us to get compensated. In addition to being local placement experts, we can also recommend agencies that provide in-home caregiving. We realize that some families are not ready to place their loved ones into Assisted Living or Memory Care and we have vetted private duty caregiving agencies throughout Southern Arizona. Our goal is to provide families with as much information as possible so that they can make an informed decision. 

Our placement model is unique in that we do a full initial intake and, if necessary, get permission (HIPPA clearance) from families to validate care needs with PCPs and physician specialists. Furthermore, we have a documented 7-page vetting checklist where we consistently inspect the communities in which we place. This “Community Review Checklist” was created and approved with the help of over 30 local physicians who refer to us. Lastly, we constantly check the most recent Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) surveys (inspections) on all the communities where we do placements. We are extremely transparent with our clients and even post a link to the ADHS survey website on our own Serenity Senior Services website: www.serenityss.com Cindy L. Sheller

BRX Pro Tip: Surround Yourself With Better People

Stone Payton: [00:00:00] Welcome back to Business RadioX Pro Tips. Lee Kantor and Stone Payton here with you, Lee, we really should, if we’re trying to improve ourselves, improve our results, we should be consistently seeking to surround ourselves with better people, yeah?

Lee Kantor: [00:00:19] Yeah, I think it’s Jim Rohn who said that you’re the average of the five people you hang around the most. And if that’s true, and I believe that’s true to a large extent, you’ve got to constantly be hanging out with better and better people. And better doesn’t have to mean more successful or wealthier, but they should be better, and that they’re making you better, and they’re kind of upping your game in the areas that you need help in.

Lee Kantor: [00:00:45] And the more special people you have around you, the better your chances of success will be. These people will be role models for your success, they’ll inspire you to be better, they’ll demonstrate the behaviors of success, and they’re going to hold you accountable to be better. And that’s what everybody needs. So, keep upgrading your peer group.

Lee Kantor: [00:01:05] And that means, periodically pruning people who are negative, who are energy depleters, who are takers. You’ve got to find more generous people, more supportive people, more cheerleaders, the people that are going to hold you to a higher standard, and then, you’re going to help hold them to a higher standard as well. So, keep working on this, and you’re going to see the results will come pretty quickly.
