Patrick was born and raised in Addison, IL. Patrick has always been a very athletic person, and spent much of his youth playing baseball, basketball, and football with his little brothers. As an adult, he jumped at the opportunity to share his passion for sports, and coached a basketball team of 6th and 7th graders all the way to a championship.

Patrick’s dreams and ambitions lead him clear across the country to Los Angeles, CA where he studied acting at one of the top film schools in the country. Looking for a way to fluff up his acting resume, he turned to ballroom dancing. It was on the dance floor that Patrick found his true passion, and more confidence that he ever imagined. He is now delighted to say that he has committed his life to sharing the many joys and benefits of Ballroom Dancing with the students at Fred Astaire.
