Born in Coventry, England, raised in the capital London by a Jamaican single mother from the Windrush generation. Patrick’s mother Maxine did all she could for her son and daughter Pauline which included going without at times to ensure her children were happy. On his fathers side he is one of nine children, 5 girls and 4 boys.

Personal Trainer, athletics coach, public figure, martial artist, author and now co founder of UTCAI. Patrick, father of four with four grand children, has been motivating people and uplifting his community long before he became a national hero.

Fit at fifty is his mantra. Striving to help those who need to improve their physical well being and find mental tranquility. He uses daily exercise and martial arts as a motivational tool. Frequently travelling to Thailand to endure challenging Muay Thai training camps where he honed his Thai boxing skills and still does till this day. He accredits a lot of his mental fortitude to those times training in his beloved Thailand and owes a lot to his various Kru’s (Instructors).

Patricks earliest martial arts memories came from watching chinese kung fu movies and mimicking the fight scenes with his friends. He then started in the art of Tae Kwon do at the age of 12. His latest martial arts love affair is with Brazilian jiu jitsu.

On 13th June 2020, Patrick and his friends were compelled to intervene in an incident which would subsequently change the course of their lives and shock the world!

The image of Patrick rescuing the Anti BLM protestor from serious harm went viral. His actions also helped save the BLM protest from being hijacked by negative press. The incident also changed the narrative!

Luckily, Patrick's heroic play among chaos was captured on camera and in a matter of hours the likes of CNN, The New York Times, The Guardian, The Sun, ITV news, BBC news, Channel 4 news and Channel 5 started calling.

He has since featured inside magazines such as GQ and Vogue, as well as the front cover of Men’s Health magazine. GQ also nominated him a GQ hero and awarded him with their ‘Men of the year - Humanitarian award’. All this in the space of 6 months!

Patrick is now seen as a beacon of hope, an advocate for change, diversity, inclusion and unity the world over.
