Patrick is the SkyDyes! crew chief, coordinating flight operations while on the ground. Cheerful, enthusiastic, and always ready to go (no matter how dark and early), he helps inflate our balloons, chases, and then oversees the packup into his big green truck.
Besides helping with the flight operations, Patrick was an indispensible help during the creation of HaleLucinations, the latest SkyDyes balloon. Patrick is a conservation biology student at UNM, a devoted lover of nature, and he sometimes shares some fresh New Mexican elk with the rest of the crew.
