“Since my Day 1—nearly 2 years ago—of working literally side-by-side with Ritzie on the Nutrition Club ecosystem and the UX team, I’ve gained so many skills that permeate into other areas of life, a teammate who leads by superior example, and a friend I can talk about design, self-development, and business ideas with for hours.
Among so many qualities that I admire about Ritzie, these are a few standouts: his energy is contagious whereby he can uplift an entire room full of people even on Zoom, his work ethics are effective and inspiring, and his strive for continuous growth takes the cake wherever he goes. This goes without saying, that the UX team and Nutrition Club Experience are so fortunate to have a team leader like Ritzie for a second wind.
Cheer and looking forward to all that’s on the road ahead, Ritzie!“

“In my impression, Ritzie is an artistic guy just by looking. He has a big boy‘s heart that always keeps the simplicity of the greatness. He has enough sense of humor so that he can be serious about the work but never takes himself too seriously. I miss the project discussions moments with him and the design team when working in the office even at the late night for the delivery…“
— Director, Product Management

“Ritzie’s personality and work ethic are absolutely infectious. He’s the kind of guy that inspires you to work harder and think of ways to attack problems. Brainstorming sessions with him are a blast and really thought provoking because he’s always shooting out great ideas and new ways to think about things. NCX is truly lucky to have all the fantastic people we do on our team, and Ritzie enhances that tenfold. Every team should have a Ritzie on them. He's reliable, hard working, creative, welcoming, and supportive. What else could you ask for in a teammate?!?“
— Sr. UX Researcher
“Over the last 4 years, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ritzie. He is always ready to engage in lively debate and I am a better designer and person because of those conversations. His contributions within our Nutrition Club tools are award-winning, but his contributions to improving processes and culture within Herbalife, and specifically the UX team, are invaluable. Thank you Ritzie and cheers to the future!“
— Manager, UX Design
“Ritzie has a contagious enthusiasm for innovation and design thinking that has been very exciting to follow. He has taken time in the past to explain the process, walk other teams through iterations on design and evangelize the progress we are making in the Nutrition Clubs across GTS. Aside from that, he brings so much personality and energy – glad you are back and excited to see what comes next! 😊“
— Manager, PMO
“Since the day I first met Ritzie, I knew he was going to be great for our team and someone I wanted as a friend. His smile is infectious as is his positive can do attitude about work and life. When he left Herbalife, Ritzie and I stayed in touch with Facebook and I kept asking him when he was going to come home to Herbalife. Every time I spoke with Jonathan Z. I would ask when is Ritzie coming back. When I got the news that he would be joining Herbalife again, I could not have been happier. Ritzie brings such life to the room when he is around you. Listening to him speak with the high school kids from A Place Called Home was inspiring. He is a mentor, a designer, a problem solver, a pizza lover and thankfully a friend. Ritzie, we are so lucky to have you as a part of our team and our world.“
