I have known Patrick for a little bit now. His ability to create solutions gets better and better. Give him a clear mission and he does not need further direction.

I am very pleased to write a letter of recommendation on behalf of Patrick Blake, whom I have known for five years, and worked with while at James Perse. I was impressed with Patrick from the moment he was first hired. It was his impressive portfolio of work and professional demeanor that got him the job, but it was his unrelenting determination to deliver the highest quality of work that propelled him to earn a promotion and additional responsibility. Patrick was always reliable and honest. A very hard worker who was self motivated, Patrick worked effectively across all departments, with co-workers and staff. I really enjoyed working with him. Without reservation, I highly recommend Patrick. Mark Johnson
