Patrick holds a degree in architectural engineering and is a master draftsman who brings technical rigor to creative projects. Fairly new to the art world, he transitioned to being an artist later in life, and his prior professional and life experiences have been instrumental to that choice. As a former industrial arts instructor for high school students, he taught woodworking, drafting, and design fundamentals—fostering practical skills, design thinking, and safe shop practices. Patrick combines his growing knowledge, meticulous draftsmanship, and an eye for form to create functional, well-crafted pieces while mentoring the next generation of makers.
