Among these visits, the Porsche Stuttgard-Zuffenhausen facility, where the iconic 911 is meticulously crafted, was a standout highlight. Reflecting on my professional evolution, I co-founded a web development company in the '90s, positioning myself as an early contributor to the burgeoning internet landscape. My hobbies tend to overlap my professional interests: Cars have always been a passion of mine. Understanding their unique features and driving philosophies brings me immense joy. especially when Indulging in activities like autocross driving. I hold a license as a HAM operator, geeking out as an Amateur Radio operator. Technology, whether in a professional or personal context, captivates me. I enjoy tinkering with tech, whether it is physical hardware or manipulating software. Photography is another outlet I cherish, shooting with a high-end camera or often with my iPhone.

Hi I’m Connor, Sales Specialist here at Porsche Seattle North. Proud to call Washington my home, I’ve got a degree in Economics from WSU, but my true passion lies in the world of cars.
I recently realized that passion while achieving a lifetime goal buying my first Porsche, and it’s been a dream come true. Now, I’m excited to share my passion for these incredible cars with others and help them find their perfect match--possibly realizing their goals acquiring a Porsche.
When I’m not at the dealership, you’ll probably find me out on the trails, mountain biking my heart out. And when the mountains finally get closed for winter, you can bet I’ll be hitting the slopes, carving up some fresh powder.
Whether you’re a seasoned Porsche enthusiast or new to the world of these quality machines, I’m here to make your experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Let’s find your Porsche together!
