I need help with a Business question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.
Introduction:
Daris Wilson, an accountant, coach, and entrepreneur, discusses how he came to open JCF Health and Fitness. Founder Daris Wilson started participating in organized sports at 5 years old, and eventually went to Bucknell University on a football scholarship. Upon graduation, Daris returned home to New Orleans and a position as an accountant. Hurricane Katrina forced him to evacuate to New Jersey where he got a job on the NYSE. In the meantime, he was providing personal training services for his wife and a few other women before and after work. A desire for more balance in his life led to running an ad on Craigslist and starting to build his training clientele. A passion for this work and a desire to share it with others inspired him. After Hurricane Sandy hit in the Jersey City area, Daris decided to make JCF his primary foundation and to grow his business. He restructured JCF and is now looking to open more locations and expand his role. Daris wants to focus on helping more people reach their goals and change their lives through fitness.
