  • My Good Points

    I am a loyal friend, hardworker and always have a positive outlook on life. I am passionate about everything that I do, I love cooking (especially pasta and stir-fry) and am a big fan of Nutella. I am energetic and enjoy going to the gym, which I go to on a semi-regular basis. I am very honest and love to laugh, and make others laugh. I get very excited about learning new things, especially useless facts, which I will read about forever on Wikipedia. I love to travel and experience new things. There is nothing I hate more than racism and sexism, although I hate political correctness, as it is the downfall of our society. There is nothing I love more than experiencing everything the world has to offer and learning from everyone in it.

    My Bad Points

    I text way too often, am addicted to coffee, Coca-Cola and Facebook. I live in an organized chaos. I am considered a workaholic by many, and will sometimes leave a party or social event to go finish a project. I am egotistical and can be judgemental and self-conscious. Sometimes I pick fights just because I'm in that mood. I will do anything to win. I hate roller coasters, spend too much time on my phone, iPod and computer. I have fairly bad hand-eye coordination.

    Bio

    So far, I've been a lifelong college student, starting off my career at Humber College in Etobicoke when I was 17 and interested in Civil Engeneering. After this brief stint I moved on to Georgian College in Barrie where I studied Advertising and Web Design/ Development for 3 years. After graduating here I moved on to Laurentian University in Sudbury, where I am full time in Communication Studies. I am known to get very involved in my studies, at Georgian I was an active member of Treefort Creative Advertising, where I designed many advertising and marketing materials for local businesses, including several websites. Now at Laurentian, I am President of Huntington University Communications Society, or HUCS for short. I have been on the Deans List every semester since 2009 at Georgian College and Laurentian.

    I am interested in hockey (Go Leafs Go!), marketing, geography, interpersonal communication, intrapersonal communications, sociology, music, fitness, mass media, event planning, small business, public relations and many other related subjects.

    What can I do for you?

    Patrick is experienced in writing marketing plans and doing business research, along with programming websites in PHP, MySQL, (X)HTML and CSS. He is also experienced in web design, however he will sometimes get outside help on design if you need very artisitic designs.

    Patrick's experience in marketing and advertising is a great asset to his web work, as he takes into consideration what will attract more customers/ readers to your site by means of the style, colours, text (SEO), button design, and keeping a consistant look and feel through the text and design on every page.

    Today, Patrick is described by his colleagues and clients as an individual with an exceptional understanding of how technology can best be used to enhance the lives of everyone on this planet, especially you and your customers.
