During that time, he received a graduate certificate from the Institute on Political Journalism at Georgetown University before transitioning to public relations.
Away from work, Patrick lives with his wife and two stepdaughters. He enjoys making good food and playing not-so-good golf. Patrick also relishes travelling, especially to Europe, and is inspired by seeing different geographies, visiting places of historical significance, and experiencing new cultures — so much so that he has developed an obsession with European football (soccer), especially for his beloved Chelsea. Come on you Blues!
