About Me
Patrick is a Health & Physical Education Teacher as well as a Certified Personal Trainer through NASM. Patrick holds an Associate’s Degree in Exercise Science as well as a Bachelor’s & Master’s Degree in Physical Education.
In addition to his career as a Physical Education Teacher, he has also worked very closely with different athletic high school teams in facilitating strength & conditioning workouts for both in and off-season.
During the first 6 years of his teaching career, he was living in upstate New York. After his school days, he had the unique opportunity of being a Certified Personal Trainer at Cornell University, where he trained the PhD student population. There, he learned the skills of meeting clients wherever they were based. Patrick learned how to modify workouts and cater to a busy lifestyle where fitness couldn’t be the top priority for many.
Additionally, Patrick has trained people of all professions, from firefighters to corporate America, college professors, and high school athletes in various settings, including collegiate student life centers, commercial gyms, and high school training facilities. Patrick has trained people from the ages of 11-65. Aside from working with several high school sports teams & personal training clientele, weight training has been a passion of his since he was a teenager. Patrick has been strength training for 15 years and has even competed in powerlifting competitions. He enjoys training for strength & longevity. Patrick has a deep passion for strength training and has reaped all its benefits: lean muscle mass, fat loss, strength gain, energy, focus, improved cognitive function, confidence, and more. One of his biggest goals is to have his clients enjoy their workouts and have the tools to exercise lifelong, experience these benefits, and feel good about themselves!
Patrick can work with any client regardless of the goal, but he would say his specialities are building strength, helping clients work through and around injuries, building muscle, and burning fat.
