What I Do: Website Development, Website Maintenance, Content Management Systems, Website Theming, Website Architecture, Graphic Design, Landing Page Creation
It’s rare to find a web developer who has the creative skills of a web designer but Pat has managed to shatter all stereotypes. His passion for making websites stems from his desire to create captivating aesthetics every time a visitor lands on one of his sites. His commitment to web design lets him flex his creative muscles and create those UI and UX elements that make a website so powerful.
As a graduate of the Interactive Media Design and Production program at Fanshawe, he’s no stranger to impressing fans with his work. Pat got his start in design when he created posters, shirts and album art for his band Hartford. After wowing his fans with his guitar and melodies on a cross-Canada and US tour, Patrick moved to London to pursue interactive design.
When he’s not building websites or playing guitar, you can find Pat devouring Tolkien and anxiously awaiting the next instalment of Star Wars.
