I’ve been with Porsche since 2017. I spent the majority of my time working as a detailer at Porsche Minneapolis. I specialized in paint correction and ceramic glass coatings to help protect our clients investment in their new vehicles. I would spend allot of time educating our customers on best practices for maintaining the finish on their new vehicle. I then, made a change to a service advisor in 2022 at the Porsche St. Paul location. I’ve always had an interest in the auto industry and the Carousel motor group is a great place to land. My free time is spent with my wife Alex at home or serving in the Minnesota National Guard. I’ve been enlisted since 2014 and planning to stay in until my 20 years is done.
