About

Porsche has been a dream of mine ever since I was little. I started working at Publix when I was 14. I am currently pursuing a bachelors degree in Public Relations and work here at Porsche Clearwater curating events, social media, and our community relationships. Snapping pictures of cars has been a hobby of mine for a few years. I learned everything by going to car meets and meeting new people at The Main Straight. It's been an amazing journey here at Porsche Clearwater and it is just getting started! Go follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook!

About

Born and raised in Tampa, I’ve been passionate about cars for as long as I can remember. That passion drove me into the dealership world, where I’ve spent the past 5 years working with some of the most respected German engineered brands in the industry, Porsche being the newest addition. When I’m not at work, you’ll probably find me outdoors—laying on the beach, exploring, or just soaking up the fresh air with my dog. If the weather’s right, there’s a good chance I’m out on my motorcycle enjoying the open road. My love for vehicles doesn’t stop at the dealership—it’s a lifestyle.
