JON WHEEL

Marketing Manager
jwheel@soulpp.com

Jon combines his journalism degree with automotive passion to endlessly pursue the most significant cars in the world. His experience with major manufacturers like McLaren and Porsche provided a gateway to top-level motorsport and Concours events around the country–and while many of SOUL’s team members can be spotted on the track, Jon is frequently found just off track with a camera.

Jon’s automotive addictions have been specifically focused on hot hatches like the Focus ST and Golf GTI, but his sim racing experience gave him his own taste of being behind the wheel on the world’s greatest race tracks.

PAUL AGUIRRE

Performance Specialist
Paul@soulpp.com  |  Direct line  267-818-3203

Paul fell in love with Porsches at an early age and had the pleasure of indulging in the heat of the air-cooled days. “The air-cooled sound is just intoxicating!” Several P-cars later, and the stable currently consists of a 1978 911 SC and 2011 Cayman S. PCA Member #2014111062

Paul is a “seasoned” professional – and we mean that in a cheeky sense – he’s owned and managed several restaurants (including one for Iron Chef Bobby Flay) for over 15 years. His skills were forged under years of navigating stressful environments – including instant and overwhelming success when one of his restaurants was featured on a Food Network special. 

Paul followed his heart and decided to focus on automotive performance and making sure every customer is happy with their upgrades – and that every shop can have that same assurance for their customers when they outfit them with SOUL. Experienced in this business – and with an aptitude for business – you can be sure that Paul will go out of his way to make your experience with us top notch.

MAX DE LUCIA

VP of Development and Manufacturing
Max@soulpp.com

Max spends his days manipulating metal into masterpieces. His past experience as fabricator and foreman gives him the ability to craft product from start to finish. “We’re going to make sure it works.” Nothing leaves his work bench until he’s satisfied it will meet expectations, something we can all appreciate!

In his free time Max enjoys building metal figurines from junk bits, playing with his dog, and taking photos at automotive events and during his many travels.

KYLE KUSHNER

Inventory and Logistics Manager

Kyle is responsible for keeping track of every bolt, flange, and component in this building and making sure the supply chain runs smoothly – not an easy task. With a background as a chemist, he realizes that one little mistake can cause issues down the line and thus is extra diligent about our warehouse and the thousands of tracked pieces in it. 

Kyle used to crew for John B during his 944 racing days, and his 87′ 924S has several takeoff components from his race cars making for a fun street car. 

MIKE SPOCK

Marketing

Mike has spent his entire career in the automotive industry – focusing on producing creative, high quality content and collaborating with customers in many roles from sales to marketing. His goal at SOUL is to deliver you as much information and media as possible while highlighting customers and their vehicles.

Mike spent years building up a turbo NA Miata from the ground up and now tinkers on his 1.8T 914 Project Car and mountain bikes. PCA Member #2021061466
