Andrew Stryffeler has joined the YMCA of Western North Carolina as the new Executive Director of Member Experience. 

Stryffeler brings a dynamic blend of leadership, customer engagement, and sales strategy to this role, with a professional journey that began right here at the YMCA—as a camp counselor. That early experience sparked a lifelong commitment to building strong, supportive communities, and he's thrilled to return to an organization that shares those values.

Stryffeler has held senior leadership positions at companies like Moog Music and Artiphon, where he led global sales teams, implemented operational strategies that drove consistent growth and led the successful launch of CRM systems that enhanced customer engagement. His expertise spans customer experience design, data-driven sales operations, and cross-functional team development. Whether establishing donation programs for children’s hospitals or aligning enterprise sales and inventory planning, Andrew has a proven record of turning vision into impactful action.

Stryffeler's consulting background and entrepreneurial spirit reflect his passion for helping teams thrive, and he’s deeply aligned with the YMCA’s mission. When not at work Andrew enjoys producing music, hiking, backpacking and spending time with friends and family, especially his newest niece.
