Patrick got his start coming up with big ideas as a grade-schooler. Watching Jerry Rice wearing a Breathe Right Nasal Strip on Monday Night Football, Patrick suggested the San Francisco superstar would be a great spokesman. 3 months later, Breathe Right had a sponsorship deal in place, and Patrick had a nice autographed football collection.Years later, Patrick joined Altus and now gets a paycheck instead of autographs for his ideas. A digital native, he turned his love for all things digital, social and mobile into a role as Digital Strategist. His current and past clients include The Village Company, Hearth and Home Technologies, HealthFitness, Carmex, Renewal By Andersen, and Red Baron Pizza. His passion for sports marketing helped the Altus team put together Carmex’s partnership with LeBronJames.com. The resulting Half-Court Hero promotion brought lucky fan Michael Drysch to Miami, where he sunk an amazing hook shot and was promptly tackled by LeBron himself. Without skipping a beat, Patrick successfully managed a whirlwind PR tour for the winner with stops on NBATV, Good Morning America, Fox and Friends, and CNN as well as dozens of local TV and radio stations that drove over 500 Million impressions.Away from the office, Patrick is a basketball junkie, an avid golfer and a dedicated family man, with an amazing wife, and 4 ACTIVE kids.(Altus was formerly part of BOLIN Marketing and is now a stand-alone business development and marketing consulting firm.)
