Our Staff keeps growing…..

September 1, 2014

We had quite a week at the Playhouse and Hugs+Mugs.  The third class of GiGi U graduated Thursday evening. Hugs+Mugs mentors, Tim, Nicole, Kiera, Patrick, Brian and Christine, were on hand to show their support for the graduating class. Our Mentors remember how nervous they were when they were standing on the same stage just a few short months ago and wanted to offer words of wisdom to ease their fears – and a hug!

All of the students of GiGI U learn about diet, nutrition, fitness, job skills but the most impressive thing that EVERY graduate has come to Hugs+Mugs with is confidence! They walk in for orientation with a sense of Pride. Proud to become part of our family of Mentors. Their teamwork is inspiring – we have much to learn from them.

So please join me in welcoming Ramsan, Aubrey and Apoorva to our Hugs+Mugs Family and we also want to congratulate Tim, Beth, Chris, Kiera, Farzin, Evelyn, Patrick and Matt on completing their run as Interns and accepting their new role as Mentors. We are so proud of our Team!
