What people I've worked with say

I worked with Patrick on the leadership team at Apollo Neuroscience. Patrick is a highly effective collaborator with a strong ability to leverage data-driven insights. He works seamlessly with cross-functional teams, adeptly identifying challenges, developing innovative solutions, and driving positive outcomes. His consistently positive and proactive approach fosters a productive work environment and inspires others to strive for excellence. I would welcome the opportunity to collaborate with him again in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Patrick while he was Chief of Staff at Apollo Neuroscience. He was a critical operator that jumped into the deep end and immediately tackled the toughest challenges, spanning from complex, all-encompassing financial models, to tracking performance and identifying blockers within all departments, ultimately leading executive weekly calls with accuracy and efficiency. His influence honed the executive team's focus down to key metrics, goals, and mandatory thresholds that helped optimize the allocation of resources and the financial trajectory [of] the company. He also stayed involved with all team members and stakeholders, always showing genuine dedication for solving problems, or more significantly - helping others learn to solve their own problems. He is not only one of the most intelligent individuals I've had the privilege of working with professionally, but he also demonstrates a deep passion for supporting others beyond the workplace. His enthusiasm for sharing his expertise and the guidance he provides has had a profound and continued impact on my life. Patrick is truly the whole package - he is solution oriented, takes initiative, exhibits an unmatched level of focus and determination, and his positive attitude radiates to those around him. He is an outstanding leader with a wealth of experiences and accomplishments in both work and personal life, and the caliber of his character makes him an extremely beneficial asset to any team, group, or individual.

From 2021 to 2023, I worked closely with Patrick at CRS Group, reporting to him as Head of Talent. I'm confident he'll continue driving meaningful success wherever he goes. I have been impressed by his mastery of the skills needed by any fast-growing company, technical acumen, and relentless desire to grow professionally. Patrick is a strong proponent of transparency and effectively utilizes root-cause analysis and a healthy dose of accountability to get things done. He greatly supported me in implementing systems like Greenhouse and Culture Amp to improve recruitment and engagement. Together, we worked through some of the thorny issues common in a transforming business. Patrick was a great boss and now a friend.

I had the privilege of working under Patrick, who recruited and interviewed me for the initial position of Controller at CRS. Patrick provided exceptional support and training that laid the foundation for my success and promotion to Director of Finance and then ultimately CFO at CRS. Patrick's leadership style is both approachable and empowering, fostering an environment where I felt confident to ask questions and grow professionally. His ability to identify potential and guide team members with patience and insight is truly remarkable. I am deeply grateful for the mentorship and opportunities Patrick provided and would wholeheartedly recommend him as an outstanding leader and mentor.

Having known Patrick for almost 30 years, I've seen him evolve across many stages of life including our opportunity to work together at CRS. Since we were kids, Patrick has always deeply enjoyed mentoring others. He understands this is a way to solidify curiosity into knowledge and that it's the ultimate way of giving back. This openness led him to dive into a number of interests that we still bond over today such as music and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. As a leader in both the communities he joins and the ones he works in, I see Patrick bringing his passion and drive to any company he joins. We'll be friends for life, and I'd love to work with him again too!

Patrick recruited me to his BizOps team at Truework. Patrick is a curious thinker and thoughtful leader. He focuses not only on accomplishing the task at hand, but also on how to accomplish the task more efficiently, spearheading process improvement and/or development. As a manager, Patrick is generous with his time and is invested in his reports' growth, which is evident from the creative interviews he designs to his weekly check-in cadence. I had a fantastic experience working with Patrick, and I would be thrilled to find an opportunity to do so again in the future.

I cofounded Hirevisor with Patrick back in 2016. Working with Patrick, you get a sense of his drive. Regardless of the nature of the assignment, he'll take ownership, learn the problem space in a heartbeat yet with great nuance, and then solve it faster than anyone else can. Although he seems nice and affable, he knows how to buckle down and ship things fast. Capable in any role BizOps, Product, Design, Analytics, and even Eng.
