As the youngest of seven children, Patrick grew up absorbing the ever-present sights and sounds that come with being part of a large family. Bitten by the acting bug at a very young age, he spent countless hours clowning around imitating and acting out everything he saw and heard - cartoon characters, teachers, actors, television shows, commercials, movie scenes, sports announcers, friends, relatives - everything. Voice acting in particular seemed to be a natural calling. One Christmas as a young child he received a portable cassette tape recorder (which he still has to this day!) and from that moment on couldn't get enough of creating and editing voice recordings for fun. Even on stage, his first junior high school drama coach once stopped a rehearsal to tell everyone to "listen to this voice - it's the best stage voice you'll ever hear!"
In the many years since, Patrick has routinely received comments from friends, colleagues, clients, and even strangers expressing how his very voice naturally engages and maintains a warm connection throughout a conversation.
