Conor Jones
My name is Conor Jones. I’m originally from Portland, Oregon. Looking for adventure and sunny weather, I headed to North Carolina for college. I graduated from UNC – Chapel Hill with a degree in economics and political science.
I took my first job here in Richmond, VA because RIFP immediately impressed me as friendly work environment where people believe in working hard and having fun. I continue to be motivated by the challenge associated with building my own business. I thoroughly enjoy the relationships i have made over the years, and i still get excited by the thrill of putting together deals. My favorite part of the job is working with business partners to help in developing new products and ideas.
My wife, Katherine, and I enjoy traveling and are always busy dreaming about our next adventure to somewhere exotic.
