Growing up in a military family, Patrick became an All-American tennis player at Missouri’s Truman State University where he graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration in 1994. Upon graduation, Patrick played professional tennis for more than a year. Next, he attended Baylor University where he received a Masters of Science degree in Education in 1997 and was the assistant coach of the Men’s Tennis Team (2004 National Champions). His last six hours of graduate school was an internship with the Professional Golf Association (PGA) at the Four Seasons Resort and Club – where he spent three years as a tennis professional.
Patrick launched his career in financial services with Smith Barney in 2000 and joined Merrill as a Financial Advisor in 2008. Today, it’s not surprising that Patrick is the club champion at Brookhaven Country Club where he, his wife, Yvonne and their three children live on the golf course. Patrick enjoys watching his children perform and compete, playing golf and snow skiing. He still plays tennis almost every day (at 6 am) at Brookhaven.
