Patrick is an Oklahoma native, though life as an Army brat had him growing up in many different places across the USA and Europe. He's settled into life in California's San Francisco Bay Area — where the weather suits his clothes.
When not photographing and scripting dynamic 360° Flash & virtual tour content for his own clients, Patrick has been known to take graduate courses in Linguistics, do the crossword and snap the occasional photo just for fun.
