Why do you love working in the Art Museum District?!
It's close to home! I live in Fairmount with my wife and 2 year old boy.
Tell us about your founders. What was the inspiration for opening the business?
My father was my inspiration. He was a small business owner throughout my childhood and was the reason I wanted to open my own business. I tried corporate life for 4 years and found myself unfulfilled. Since I had an athletic background, I always thought it would be incredible to own a gym and give others a path to health & wellness. Long story short, I landed on a Retro Fitness franchise to bring that dream to reality.
