Hey, I'm Conner
I’m here to help you take your esports career or organisation to the next level. With my strategic management, market knowledge, and other revolutionary insights, I will help unlock your potential.
About Me
In 2014, I began my esports journey when I set out to compete on an amateur level in Call of Duty. Simultaneously, I was managing an esports organisation known as Vulkeen. From what started as a side project developed into a full time career when I noticed my gaming passion could be infused with my strategic and analytical skills.
After a short period of competing, I learned that my true talent lies in working behind the scenes, where I support remarkable players and staff members who are trying to find their bases in the realm of esports. Since this point in time, I have had the opportunity to work with numerous professional teams and organisations across different titles which include SMITE, Super Smash Bros, CS:GO, Rainbow Six, and League Of Legends.
To me, every interaction is an individual case — there is no one-size-fits-all answer. I see the player's perspective, and I build a strategy that fits their career goals and difficulties. From contract negotiations, through personal brand development, to long term career plans, I enjoy supporting esports professionals in taking the steps that best fit their talents and goals.
When I'm not working with clients, you'll find me watching tournaments, playing video games, or keeping an eye on emerging esports titles. I'm based in the United Kingdom but work with clients globally.

dCypher eSports
2015 - 2017General Manager
As General Manager at dCypher eSports, I was responsible for acquiring and managing multiple professional rosters, including teams in SMITE and Rainbow Six Siege. I played a key role in expanding dCypher’s visibility by securing a team that qualified for the SMITE Pro League and signing ex-professional Rainbow Six Siege player 'Aherys.' Additionally, I oversaw day-to-day operations, sponsorship acquisition, and social media management.
Dolce Vita
2015 - 2016General Manager
I personally managed Dolce Vita, a professional SMITE team under dCypher eSports. After qualifying for the SMITE Pro League in 2015, the team decided to part ways with dCypher to explore broader opportunities. Despite their departure, I continued as their General Manager until the team fully disbanded in 2016 before the start of the Pro League.
Vulkeen Esports
2014 - 2015CEO / Owner
Vulkeen Esports marked the beginning of my journey in esports. Driven by my passion for competitive gaming, I founded the organisation, which competed in various titles, including CS:GO and Call of Duty. After years of playing Call of Duty and following the esports scene, running my own organisation sparked my love for esports management. To this day, I still hold onto the original branding of Vulkeen as a reminder of where it all began.
