Sports journalist joins team GNC LiveWell

PITTSBURGH — GNC Holdings on Wednesday announced that Jenn Brown, two-time Emmy Award-winning sports journalist, has joined the GNC LiveWell team as its newest brand ambassador.

"Having been a student athlete throughout my life, participating as an honor student in diving, volleyball, basketball, softball and track and field in high school and as a NCAA softball player at the University of Florida, I know and understand the value of education, health and nutrition," Brown said. "Being part of the GNC team, I am looking forward to continuing my efforts to inform, educate and inspire fellow fitness enthusiasts on living a healthy and balanced lifestyle."

Together with Nora Tobin, who signed on as a GNC brand ambassador Aug. 22, Brown will educate athletes and fitness enthusiasts on living a healthy, athletic life — and how GNC products can help enhance and support those goals — through the use of social media, video, appearances and marketing materials.

"At GNC, we find people like Jenn Brown an inspiration," said Jeff Hennion, EVP and chief marketing officer and e-commerce at GNC. "Jenn's extensive background in sports and media, both as an athlete, journalist and Under Armour model, will help our GNC team deliver our Live Well message to millions of fellow health enthusiasts."
