Patrick has been connecting business process with data since the early 1980s—principally in financial, software, and insurance/actuarial arenas. He has decades of experience with major relational database and business intelligence platforms and is very excited about the arrival of contemporary data technologies, including multi-dimensional, NoSQL, and big-data, and especially those that can be served as a cloud platform.

In addition to getting excited about how tight code, good data modeling, and a robust understanding of business process can work together to provide maximum value to a fast-growing business, Patrick is also in a never-ending pursuit of a good golf swing and the perfect margarita (with decidedly more success in the latter department). In more recent years, he has taken to creating large-scale, community-wide puzzle-solving scavenger-hunt events, and seeking out interesting spots on the Sonoma coastline with his family.
