A seasoned world traveler, some of Patricia’s larger projects have recently included trips to Mexico City and Barcelona (where her fluency in Spanish was
very helpful!) and also Italy. In Italy she had the privilege of working with the Monte Zuckor Photographic Education's team, professional photographers, and models from around the globe. She has also worked on special projects (product reviews) for the camera company Canon (see video in "Print" tab) with photographer Lou Freeman.

Her greatest achievement, in her own words, is “helping women discover their strength and helping them maximize their potential, while honoring the person within.”
