WORTH NOTING
Outside of the office, Connor is a dedicated hockey player, skier, and boxer. He is also a lifelong pianist and can still crank out an off-key (yet emotive) rendition of Billy Joel’s “Piano Man”.
A proud native of Montreal, Connor claims to be 72% fluent in French. He remains devoted to the Montreal Canadiens.
