Design & Consulting
"Pat is a brilliant instructional designer and true team player who always puts people first. His depth of knowledge about instructional design and the psychology of learning is matched by his ability to figure anything out - whether it is a new subject area, a new challenging group of stakeholders, or a brand new program structure that is designed for new constraints. He is adept at navigating organizational dynamics, and has an eye for developing culture. He has a deep appreciation for the impact his work has on the day to day experience of hundreds and thousands of folks at a big company. And if that wasn't enough, he is also one of the kindest and most conscientious humans I've ever met... Oh, and did I mention he also gets serious results? If you ever have the chance to work with Pat, take it! He will exceed your expectations.

I worked with Pat at the IMF. I took Financial Programming and Policies (FPP), one of the first online courses Pat designed. The course took dense technical content and made it more digestible than I could imagine possible. That course and others Pat built at the IMF would later be taken by government officials and ministers all over the world."
