Hi, I’m Patrick :-)
I’ve been a creative in advertising for longer than I care to admit and have been a working artist for longer than I can remember. I’ve spent years leading teams through projects big and small, from bootstrap miniature productions to global campaigns. I've spent countless hours behind the scenes, behind the camera, and behind the eight-ball on all scales of production. I also relish any opportunity to direct, which I have been lucky enough to do a number of times. I am a seasoned presenter and have worked closely with clients throughout my career both in person and remotely, with a wide ranging client roster from hyper-local to international.
In my free time I draw and paint, I practice photography and bonsai, I’ve crafted a handful of murals, produced and directed short films, and have even written a full length young adult sci-fi novel that I will talk at length about to anyone who will listen.
Odds are, if it's something creative, I've tried it at least once and am always excited to give it another shot.
