How has the brand evolved during your time here?The brand has had many inspiring mottos including our current mission statement: improving lives through fitness, as well as other campaigns over the years including “I built this”, Blank Better, Make Today Matter, Everybody Matters, etc. that always focus on what matters most: the member.
Do you have a favorite memory at NYSC?On April 10, 2002, I went into labor and my water broke with my daughter at the W80th Club so it will always have a special place in my mind.
