Patrick, a veteran of the non-profit world, re-joined the Water Education Foundation in 2024 as its Deputy Executive Director.

In his role, Patrick is responsible for operations and boosting revenue streams that allow the Foundation staff to achieve our important mission and maximize our impact in California and the West.

Prior to joining the Foundation, Patrick was the executive director for the Hemophilia Foundation of Northern California and one of the founders of the “Familia de Sangre,” the first statewide bleeding disorders conference in California that was presented in Spanish.
