Patrick is a combination of Latino pride, American drive, rhythm and caffeine. He has performed to
over 300,000 people across the USA, Canada, Mexico and Germany. He even danced in a mall food
court much to the embarrassment of his friend. In 2012 his programs were named a "Best Practice" by the Louisiana Air
National Guard Family and Youth Programs.
Both his books "Mad Skills for Student Success" and "Bully Breakthrough" have been
assets to teens across the country. He is currently working on a third book entitled
"From Me to We" in collaboration with Dr. Raphael Travis from Texas State University.
When not traveling Patrick is busy rock wall climbing, checking out hole-in-the-wall
restaurants, kayaking, driving his friends crazy with board games, dancing it up in Salsa clubs
and trying to get married so his mom will quit harassing him!
Logistics
The following audio/visual and staging requests are designed to enhance the audience's enjoyment of Patrick's program.

Patrick will arrive approximately 45 minutes prior to your event.
Microphone: Wireless Handheld Preferred or a regular ground mic with at least 50’ of cord
1 chair
Audio: Patrick uses a variety of music for his keynote presentations.
Patrick will require a portable PA system compatible with RCA Adapter Cables set up in the area of the assembly approximately 40’-50’ away from the audience.
Lighting: A bright, well-lighted platform will enhance the energy level for the .
event.
Flooring: Break dancing is an extreme dance form that is beautiful to watch provided adequate space is provided. Please ensure that the floor is free of debris (a good sweeping always does the trick), and the dimensions are at least 16’ x 16’. Carpet and concrete are not favorable locations! Non-slippery floors strongly encouraged.
Audience set-up: If the assembly is to be held in the gymnasium please keep all students to one side of the gym and together. Teachers must sit with the students (it cuts down on mischievous behavior).

Volunteers: Each program will entail the use of several volunteers from the audience. It is up to the client’s discretion whether or not volunteers are to be pre-selected. Experience has shown that the more outgoing and lively the volunteers are the better the audience’s response.
Water: A dry mouth is a speaker’s worst enemy. Help fight the war on dry mouth by providing Patrick with 2 bottles of room temperature water.
Resource table: Following each assembly Patrick will have resources (books, posters, etc) available that can be of value to your students and teachers. Please allow for a 5’x8’ to be used for these resources. You may wish to let students know that Patrick will have products for sale so they may plan accordingly.
