To be perfectly fair to Patrick, he submitted his profile a long time ago and it’s completely my fault that it wasn’t published until now. He’s owed an apology and I hope that by publishing this, it’s a step in the right direction. But if some of his answers appear out of date, it’s definitely not his fault. Someone who walked the streets with a resume in his hand to get a job and went to college without ever having to pay deserves the chance to be spotlighted. So read on and learn more about Patrick and why he probably would have done a better job writing this intro than I did.
