- Jul 2012 - PresentManager, Digital Strategy / Bolin Marketing
Patrick got his start coming up with big ideas as a grade-schooler. Watching Jerry Rice wearing a Breathe Right Nasal Strip on Monday Night Football, Patrick suggested the San Francisco superstar would be a great spokesman. 3 months later, Breathe Right had a sponsorship deal in place, and Patrick had a nice autographed football collection.
Years later, Patrick joined Bolin and now gets a paycheck instead of autographs for his ideas. A digital native, he turned his love for all things digital, social and mobile into a role as Manager of Digital Strategy for current and past Bolin clients including Hearth and Home Technologies, HealthFitness, Carmex, Renewal By Andersen and Red Baron Pizza. His passion for sports marketing helped the Bolin team put together Carmex’s partnership with LeBronJames.com. The resulting Half-Court Hero promotion brought lucky fan Michael Drysch to Miami, where he sunk an amazing hook shot and was promptly tackled by LeBron himself. Without skipping a beat, Patrick successfully managed a whirlwind PR tour for the winner with stops on NBATV, Good Morning America, Fox and Friends, and CNN as well as dozens of local TV and radio stations.
Away from the office, Patrick is a basketball junkie, an avid golfer and a dedicated family man, with an amazing wife, 2 young sons and a 3rd baby on the way.
