What is your role at Porsche Centre Willoughby?

As client relations concierge, my role is to warmly welcome and assist all clients with the help of my colleagues to ensure everyone at Porsche Centre Willoughby is happy and caffeinated!

What has been your experience working with the Porsche Centre Willoughby team?

A second family I got to choose. It has been fascinating to see how Porsche Centre Willoughby has continuously grown and prospered throughout the years and I am very privileged and proud to represent an incredible brand alongside the greatest people.

What appealed to you about working with the Porsche brand?

At Porsche, perfection is standard and not an added option. The brand is simply iconic, whether it be on the road, in a television show or movie, those 911 headlights are instantly recognisable and always make a statement.

Do you have a favourite Porsche model?

Driving a Lizard Green 911 GT2 RS on Willoughby Road everyday wouldn’t be so bad, it’s powerful, good looking and the everyday supercar has room for essentials like bread and milk.

A Lizard Green 911 GT2 RS is a wild car and colour, tell us about why you would choose that car and where would you drive this striking GT car?

Personally, I’ve always favoured bright colours over a classic black or white. Most of the time you’ll hear a Porsche before you see it, being Lizard Green will ensure it turns heads. If I had the opportunity to own or borrow a 911 GT2 RS, I would love to drive it through the South of France. Being my favourite place in the world, Monte Carlo would most definitely be a pit stop, where I would use the wing as a table to enjoy an espresso and take in the immaculate scenery.

Describe your perfect day at Porsche Centre Willoughby.

Every day at Porsche Centre Willoughby is unique and always interesting. Whether it be for sales, service or parts, I especially enjoy meeting both new and existing customers in person after initially helping them with their enquiry over the phone. Putting a face to the name! I leave every afternoon with a smile and a story to tell.

How do you relax and unwind from a busy day?

After a busy day at Porsche Centre Willoughby, I like to keep busy! If I’m not studying, I enjoy catching up with friends over dinner or on an evening walk, followed by dessert as a reward of course.

How long have you been with PCW?

I've been part of the team here at Porsche Centre Willoughby since May of 2021.

Often a passion for cars begins with a special moment, tell us about how your interest began?

My interest in cars has derived from my father’s passion for both German and British pre-1980’s cars. He enjoys restoring them and they still take pride of place in the garage. My first passenger experience was in a Porsche as a one-year-old, it was a red 1974 911 Targa, my father put his foot down in a quiet street and I'm told I cried the entire time. Now however, the sound on cold-start brings a smile to my face.
