Meet Our Staff

Ryan came to Park Place after graduating from the University of Western Ontario as a Business Finance Major. He had never worked in the car business prior but was always passionate about automobiles, so he decided to give it a go thinking, “You will always be successful in life if you do something that you truly love.” Ryan has done most every job throughout the dealership, from washing cars to selling them, and now is at the helm as our General Manager. Ryan truly believes that customers are the most important asset we have and says, “If we provide our customers with the highest level of service for all their automotive needs, they will be our customers for life.” And this belief manifests itself in every employee of our dealership. Ryan currently resides in Issaquah, WA with his wife and son, and in his free time, you will find him at a local autocross or taking part in Track Days. “I always wanted to be a race car driver, so this is my way of living my own dream – unfortunately funded by my own pocketbook!“ In the winter months he can be found frequenting one of the local ski resorts in his M3.

A graduate of the University of Washington Business School- Foster School of Business, he has built his career on cultivating meaningful relationships, delivering exceptional client experiences, and connecting people through shared passions. A lifelong enthusiast of exotic and luxury automobiles, Jaurdey's appreciation for automotive craftsmanship naturally aligns with the heritage and prestige of the Aston Martin brand.

Beyond the showroom, Jaurdey serves as Vice President on the Board of Directors for the Kirkland Chamber of Commerce and enjoys bringing people together through community involvement. Known for his approachable personality and sense of humor, he values authentic relationships both professionally and personally. When he's not working, Jaurdey enjoys spending time with his wife and two children, making the most of Pacific Northwest summers with friends, attending car shows, firing up the grill for BBQs, and fitting in a round of golf whenever he can.

With more than a decade of experience spanning global technology, higher education, and nonprofit organizations, Addy Rogers has built a career helping brands tell compelling stories, manage complex projects, and create meaningful connections with their audiences. She began her marketing career at Microsoft for Nonprofits, where she helped launch Microsoft Cloud for Nonprofit, supported the expansion of Microsoft's nonprofit web presence across 12 global markets, and collaborated with cross-functional teams to bring large-scale initiatives to life. Since then, she has led brand strategy, integrated marketing campaigns, and executive communications for organizations including Pepperdine University and Raven Rock Ranch, combining thoughtful storytelling with strong project management to elevate both global brands and grassroots missions alike. Outside of work, Addy is passionate about investing in her community. She volunteers as a Young Life leader, mentoring high school girls throughout the Bellevue area, serves with Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center, and previously represented Pepperdine University as one of five regional alumni leaders in the Pacific Northwest. When she isn't working, you'll likely find her planning her next international adventure, discovering a new neighborhood restaurant, creating colorful meals in the kitchen, or browsing Seattle's vintage shops in search of the perfect pair of Levi's 501s. Joining Aston Martin is especially meaningful to Addy because her passion for motorsport began long before her first day on the job. Growing up with a father who lives and breathes the automotive world—from collecting classic cars to following Formula 1—she developed an appreciation for craftsmanship, performance, and automotive heritage from an early age. She has attended two Formula 1 Grands Prix, is a devoted Lewis Hamilton fan, and recently had the opportunity to tour Aston Martin's headquarters in Gaydon, England. She is thrilled to bring her background in branding, marketing, and project management to the Brand Coordinator role and help elevate the Aston Martin brand throughout the Pacific Northwest.

With years of varied marketing experience, Jason is finally able to merge his career talents with his enthusiasm for exotic and specialty cars. Born in Bellevue and having lived all over the Pacific Northwest, joining the team at Park Place has been a bit of a homecoming and a perfectly natural transition to the greater Seattle area. When not in the garage handling light service and repair on his families' BMWs, you can find him turning laps at the local kart track in one of his 4-stroke ItalKarts with his son.
