Hi, I'm Pat O'Brien

Every problem has a solution. My father said curiosity was my biggest strength. I enjoy tackling challenges that many would rather avoid. Are you curious about the world too?

Be Entrepreneurial. Provide Value. Speak Independently.

About Me

I was born to an Irish father and Hispanic mother. If life is a marathon, I was born on Mile 12. I’m trying to do something with what I have been given. 

My mission

I want to learn and grow and teach and give opportunity to others.

Value offer

In business, I make money for partners. In law, I provide prudent and sound advice. In mentoring, I fulfill every passion inside me.

I am blinded by the opportunity I see in the
world. Businesses, governments, non-profits, social ventures – there is so much opportunity. My biggest challenge is prioritizing time to make a substantive impact.

“We are all sons and daughters. We are the descendants of those
that came before us. Our experiences are unique and we all have something to offer the world.”
