How do you describe your company in one sentence?
Life Time is the premier Healthy Way of Life company, dedicated to serving members from 90 days to 90 years of age through exceptional people, places, and programs.

What target/milestones are you laser-focused on this year?
Elevating our brand and customer experience as a differentiated athletic country club by prioritizing our Member Point of View (MPV). We are also expanding MIORA Longevity & Performance, our cutting-edge health and wellness program, and growing our LTH supplement line, delivering superior products that support our members’ well-being.

What is your proudest ever career achievement?
Leading our company, 35,000 employees, and 1.5 million members through the most challenging period in Life Time’s history—the COVID-19 pandemic. Navigating this unprecedented crisis, ensuring stability, and emerging stronger with a full financial recovery to pre-pandemic levels stands as my most significant professional accomplishment.

What excites you the most about the next 12 months?
The rapid advancements in fitness and wellness science continue to validate the essential need for health optimization. At the same time, consumers are becoming more knowledgeable and demanding wellness-driven experiences. Today, health and wellness are the new status symbols—people are placing greater value on looking good, feeling good, and living vibrantly.

What is the best business lesson you have ever learned?
Both the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2009 recession reinforced a fundamental truth: adaptability and resilience are essential, no matter how much success you’ve achieved. The ability to reinvent yourself, your business, and lead with grit is what carries you through the toughest times.

If you could wave a magic wand and change something about our industry, what would you change and why?
While I deeply respect the pioneers of the U.S. health club industry, I would erase the outdated reputation of aggressive, high-pressure sales tactics that once defined the industry. The modern fitness and wellness movement is about trust, authenticity, and long-term relationships, not transactional sales approaches.

Describe yourself in three words
Grit. Passion. Vision.

What is your personal mantra?

Who has been the biggest influence in your life?
My mom.

If you had an extra hour in your day, how would you spend it?
Cycling along a beautiful coastline with friends and family.

If you could have dinner with any three people – past or present – who would they be?
Alexander the Great, Mother Teresa, and Pericles.

If you had to write a message on a billboard for all to see, what would you write?
