  Megan Armstrong, A&G Storage Solutions

  Megan Armstrong: For the past five years, I’ve been co-owner of A&G Storage alongside my husband and biggest supporter. Together, we own two facilities—one in Blue Ridge, GA and the other in Calhoun, GA. Even though we’ve never been on-site managers, we’ve successfully run both locations 100% remotely without ever compromising on customer service. With our backgrounds in sales and customer care, we’ve built A&G Storage around one simple goal: making storage easy, stress-free, and friendly for everyone who rents with us.

  Max Vallotton Jr. is the owner and operator of Gate 5 Self Storage in Augusta, Georgia. He was first introduced to the self-storage industry in 2003 while attending the Self Storage Association (SSA) Developer’s Seminar, an experience that sparked a long-term commitment to the industry. In 2006, Max opened Gate 5 Self Storage, establishing a facility that has since become a respected presence in the Augusta market.

He served as a GASSA Board Member in 2023, President Elect in 2024, and most recently as President in 2025. In addition, Max has shared his industry knowledge as a GASSA speaker in 2014 and 2021.
