While at George Mason University, Patricia studied nursing, volunteered as an EMT and ambulance driver, played soccer, and served in Cru as a mentor and leader. Passionate about community and truth, she started a spiritual discussion group with the goal of learning from diverse perspectives in a safe environment. Patricia enjoys playing piano, meeting friends for coffee, practicing healthcare, asking questions, and teaching in church and the community.

After the Blue Ridge Fellows program, she hopes to continue working as a nurse and possibly serve in ministry overseas.
