His debut book, "The First Five: A Love Letter to Teachers," offers crucial guidance for educators navigating their early career challenges. Patrick hosted the Common Sense Podcast, which garnered over 100,000 downloads by sharing authentic educator experiences.

Patrick's interdisciplinary approach combines educational expertise with strategic communication to address critical issues in today's classrooms. He provides actionable frameworks for creating inclusive learning environments, developing culturally responsive teaching practices, and sustaining educator wellbeing amid systemic challenges. His insights have been featured in Education Week, CNN, GQ, and Huffington Post.

Audiences leave Patrick's presentations with practical tools for building stronger student-teacher relationships, strategies for supporting students from diverse backgrounds, and renewed purpose in their educational practice.
