My Name Is: Jon Conant

I Am: a major lover of music. If I’m not working, I’m probably at home listening to music with my cat, writing music, practicing my instruments, or writing album reviews for online publications. I am also the most skilled human on Earth at fantasy sports, but my friends might disagree with that.

Born In: Federal Way, WA! My apartment and childhood home are 15 minutes away from each other.

Languages Spoken: English, Star Wars terminology

Proudest Moment: When I held my cat Théoden (Theo) for the first time. I have been in love ever since.

Biggest Challenge: When my cat went missing outside, I poured every ounce of energy I had into trying every method I could think of to get him back. My hard work paid off and 48 hours later somebody contacted me saying they found him! The worst and best day of my life were only a day apart!

I Love Real Estate Because: Few industries have a more natural demand; people need homes! It makes for a fast paced and exciting work environment.

My Superhero Power: If we’re fantasizing, I would rather be a wizard than a superhero.

My Perfect Day: Being with my cat in the morning, an afternoon Mariners game at Safeco, and then an evening concert at the Showbox Market.

First Job: Marlene’s Market & Deli in Federal Way! One of the greatest small businesses around, they will make you some of the best coffee you’ve ever had.

Favorite Seattle Neighborhood: SoDo! Safeco Field, the Clink, the Showbox SoDo, Studio Seven, waterfront views, what more could you ask for?

Hobbies Outside of Real Estate? Creating, listening to, and reviewing music. I also am a professional photographer, and I particularly enjoy photographing animals. I am an avid bald eagle watcher, and have taken about 10,000 photos of bald eagles over the last 2 years!

Favorite Sports Teams: Seattle Mariners, Seattle Seahawks, LA Clippers. If the Sonics ever come back they’ll be up there as well, sadly I am not holding my breath.

Favorite Season:  Fall, I love days with clear skies in the 30s-40s.
