Editorial Director
In addition to serving as Jaci’s fulltime thinking partner, Patrick heads up all things editorial at Murder Marketing. A fiction writer by nature, Patrick transitioned to the world of strategic branding in 2005 where he brings a literary sensibility to bear on market realities. Patrick is something of an editorial chameleon, capable of writing across a spectrum of styles, from widely disparate points of view, and to a variety of audiences, all while maintaining a convincing and compelling voice that stems from his dual insistence on empathy and story. Patrick earned a dual B.A. in English and political science from the University of Notre Dame and an MFA in creative writing from Purdue University, where he also taught composition and intro to creative writing and served as fiction editor of the university’s literary journal.
