I'm so glad our paths crossed! Extraordinary experiences have taught me how to bridge the gap between what exists and what's possible.
My journey is one that includes: being abandoned at the airport as a newborn, competing at Miss America, a 15+ year track record of executive success, biological parent searches, and writing an inspirational children's book that started an empowering movement!
I received my Bachelor of Science in International Business with a minor in Japanese and a Master of Science in Public Administration from the UNLV. I live in Las Vegas with my USMA Army Ranger husband, 5 and 6-year-old wildlings, superhuman bonus son , and two senior dogs.
I powerfully believe in the power of you!
Best,
Elements of surprise
My team and I won an epic 24-hour scavenger hunt, beating over 400 teams of gluttons for punishment.
I opened my first business at 5 years old, and made $30/week making custom products. That was a lot in 1985!
I love game shows and was on Wheel of Fortune.
"Pat, I'd like to solve the puzzle."
Since 18, I've carried a physical bucket list with me daily because I never know when I'll cross something off.
