HUSK Transitions Leadership: Erin Markowski Takes Helm as CEO

HUSK, a prominent name in corporate wellness solutions, has announced a significant change in leadership. Erin Markowski, previously serving as Chief Operating Officer, will step into the role of Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Tony Frick who has led the company since 2017. As Frick transitions to Chairman of the Board, HUSK is poised to enter a new phase of growth and innovation under Markowski's leadership.

A Successful Tenure

Under Tony Frick's management, HUSK experienced impressive growth, consistently achieving over 20% revenue increases year-over-year. The company's expansion was further highlighted by the quadrupling of its team size during his tenure. In 2024, Frick facilitated HUSK's strategic sale to the Volaris Group, allowing it to operate as an independent subsidiary while benefiting from broader resources and support.

Markowski’s Journey

Markowski has been with HUSK since 2012, starting her career as a strategic account manager. She quickly demonstrated her skills and was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in 2019, and subsequently to President in January 2024. Her journey within the company is characterized by a deep understanding of clients' needs and a commitment to operational excellence. Frick commended her contributions, highlighting her critical role in shaping HUSK's strategies and her strong relationships with both clients and team members.

A Vision for the Future

In her new role, Markowski expressed enthusiasm about driving HUSK's mission forward. "It’s an exciting time to step into this expanded role. I look forward to building on the solid foundation that Tony has created at HUSK," she commented. Markowski is particularly focused on meeting the evolving needs of workplace wellness, aiming to introduce innovative solutions powered by technology, including SaaS products and AI-driven methodologies designed to empower individuals on their health journeys.

Support from Volaris Group

Robert Turner, Portfolio Leader at Volaris Group, endorsed Markowski as the right fit for leading HUSK through this transformative period in the wellness industry. "Erin has grown into this position from the ground up and has the vision and capability to help HUSK reach its maximum potential. We look forward to supporting HUSK's continued success and growth within our portfolio," he stated.

With an expansive reach, over 70 million individuals have access to HUSK's programs through their employers or health plans, making it a significant player in corporate wellness.
