Patrick started out as an advertising copywriter where he quickly realized that his true calling was behind the camera. He began working with MTV as a writer, and later as a director. There, he honed his filmmaking craft while directing some of the world’s biggest pop stars.

Today, he’s traded A-list pop stars for A-list brands. As a commercial director, he tells compelling visual stories focusing on cinematic comedy with expertly crafted performances. In 2022 he was selected to participate in the prestigious Directors Guild of America's Episodic Television Directing Program.

He lives in Brooklyn, New York with his partner and their two girls.
