Patrick joined Vertical Access in 2016. Prior to Vertical Access, he was employed at Boston Valley Terra Cotta as a production finisher, shaping clay for architectural ornamentation and working on projects ranging from the restoration of historic landmarks to the manufacturing of abstract elements for contemporary design. His experience, skill, and keen eye for recreating architectural ornaments translates into detailed technical documentation of existing building conditions. In addition to managing on-site field work, Patrick is a SPRAT Level III certified rope access technician and Vertical Access’ Rope Access Program Administrator. He has had the privilege of collaborating with design professionals on landmarks like the Boston Custom House, the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine, and the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument in Manhattan’s Riverside Park. Patrick views the programming provided by APTNE as indispensable to his architectural education.
