About Me

Hi 👋 I’m Pat, a Tampa-based marketing professional who’s passionate about driving results and growing meaningful brands.

My journey in marketing began by developing SEO content for agencies across the US, which ignited my curiosity for creating compelling narratives that resonate with diverse audiences. After graduating from Southern New Hampshire University with a BSc in Digital Marketing, I joined the marketing team at Frontdesk, strategizing and managing organic and paid media campaigns. Although my time was cut short due to COVID, I quickly landed a project management role at Threatpost developing new digital media products to serve global brands. My expertise then led me to join the team at Vert Digital as a Digital Media Planner collaborating on paid media campaigns with Fortune 1000 brands. After more than half a year in my role, I was invited to join the digital marketing team at Pegasystems, spearheading their ABM programs within the paid social and programmatic space.

Throughout my career, I’ve held various leadership roles, including VP of Communications, VP of Collegiate Relations, and President of the Boston Chapter of the American Marketing Association. Currently, I am on a National Committee for the American Marketing Association and on the Marketing Academic Advisory Board at Fisher College. I’m also keen on continuous learning; I have certifications in Google Analytics, Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Hubspot, and Project Management and I’m an MBA Candidate at the University of Miami.

Outside of work, I’m a big sports fan (Go Bucs!), enjoy spending quality time with my dog, Bowser, and volunteer with local nonprofit organizations.
