Educator
“Once you figure out how someone learns, you can teach them anything. I’m particularly proud of my history of working with young actors and take pride in whatever small contribution I have made in their evolution as people and as artists.”
THE NEW YORK SESSIONS
Patrick maintains a small studio in New York City that has become a refuge and playground for actors.
For two and a half hours, seven artists come together and through twenty-minute individual works sessions we use this safe, holistic space to deepen authenticity and individuality in storytelling by prioritizing process and elevating and artist’s right to take up space.
Testimonials
