Born in Montana, Patrice moved to the great PNW when she was 6 years old. She spent her formative years in Redmond (mostly on the soccer field or skiing at Snoqualmie) and graduated from Eastlake High School. She attended University of Nevada, Reno and ultimately graduated from WWU with a degree in Psychology. She had her sights set on being a marriage counselor but decided to try her hand at entrepreneurship instead. Since 2004, Patrice has owned a digital marketing firm that helps small businesses grow via the web.

Patrice is married (to Dave and Allan’s man crush) and has 4 exceptional kids (ages 8 – 16). You can regularly find her on the soccer fields (either coaching or cheering), skiing at Mt. Baker with the fam, on the Peloton, or at any of our great local breweries and wine bars. She loves a good dad joke and still believes there is a massive amount of good in this world.
