Patrick has the experience of having grown up in a family-owned dealership in the Houston metro area. He worked directly in the dealership for over 20 years before it was sold. He held every position at one time or another, spending the last six years as general manager.
After the dealership was sold, Patrick spent four years as the general manager at dealerships in Arizona and Denver. His last three years were spent as F&I Director for a major Nissan/Mitsubishi dealership in Austin, Texas.
In January of 1993, Service Group was able to convince Patrick to join the team as District Manager for the state of Colorado. In March of 1994, he was promoted to Central Texas District Manager. In just a few short years, he brought this territory into the top two districts for overall production. As a result of his ability, experience, and results, Patrick was promoted to Corporate Field Director in 1998, and shortly thereafter Vice President of Marketing for Service Life and Service Guard. Patrick provides the hands-on experience and leadership by example that the field force is compelled to emulate.
Patrick's experience in the dealership, his eleven-year insurance background, and his natural desire to be a leader give him the insight and passion needed to advance our programs and tailor them to fit our clients' needs. Therefore, it came as no surprise that in early 2003 Patrick was once again promoted, this time to Senior Vice President of Marketing for both Service Life and Service Lloyds. Patrick knows what it takes to succeed, and his ability to apply this knowledge on a daily basis has impressed, strengthened, and unified all those who work around him.
Patrick attended Sam Houston State University and the University of Houston. He has also received education in Business Management and Dealership Accounting through Northwood University. Patrick and his wife, Bernadette, now reside in Austin and are blessed with three children and one granddaughter. |
