Meet a Team Member: Vivian Griggs
Get to know our event marketing and expo manager.
At IDEA, we understand your quest for top-tier fitness products and companies to elevate your business, and bringing you the best takes someone with an eye for quality. Enter Vivian Griggs, one of the driving forces behind our expo at IDEA World. As IDEA’s event marketing and expo manager, Vivian collaborates with exhibitors and sponsors to craft exceptional events while ensuring our education content maintains its unparalleled quality.
In just over a year with IDEA, Vivian—a former personal trainer—has already left a lasting impression. “Vivian approaches her work with a can-do attitude. She’s incredibly smart and insightful, a team player who always steps up to the task, and someone who you can count on to deliver,” says IDEA sales manager, Steve Roth. “Working with her is also fun because she has a terrific sense of humor!”
When she’s not creating industry impact—or cracking jokes with her team—Vivian enjoys hiking and exploring new destinations with her family in their full-time RV living arrangement.
Q&A With Vivian
Q: What’s the toughest athletic or fitness challenge you conquered?
A: A marathon. I did a Tough Mudder six months after having my son.
Q: What should people know about you they might never ask about?
A: I’ve moved 32 times in the last 28 years.
Q: If given the gift of time travel, what would you most like to experience?
A: If I can just float and watch without risk, definitely dinosaurs.
Q: What gets you pumped and inspires you in life?
A: Helping people realize their dreams, their power and their ability to be whatever they want.
Q: What’s one of your greatest accomplishments?
A: This is seemingly small but so incredibly important to the people it helped: when my clients told me they could hear my voice in their head, even years after we worked together on a regular basis, encouraging them to push past their comfort zone and achieve their goals.
