Bring Patrick to Your Stage
New to the stage, not new to the story. Patrick is now booking his first speaking engagements — bringing 31 years of hands-on clinical experience and a completely original aviation-based framework for understanding ADHD to conferences, schools, and organizations ready to host a powerful, fresh voice on neurodivergence.
Speaking Topics
What Patrick speaks about
Flying a Brain Like Mine
The signature keynote. Patrick traces his journey from struggling student to licensed pilot, revealing how aviation gave him the framework to understand — and embrace — his ADHD brain. Audiences leave with a new vocabulary for neurodiversity and a practical flight plan for their own minds.
Instruments for Every Brain
A deep dive into assistive technology and evidence-based strategies for supporting neurodivergent learners. Drawing on his work as an ATP, Patrick shares the tools, frameworks, and mindset shifts that help ADHD brains thrive — in classrooms, workplaces, and beyond.
The ADHD Advantage
ADHD traits — hyperfocus, pattern recognition, creative problem-solving — are superpowers in the right environment. This talk helps organizations build cultures where neurodivergent employees don't just survive, but lead.
Pre-Flight Check: Parenting the ADHD Child
A compassionate, research-grounded talk for parents navigating an ADHD diagnosis. Patrick shares what he wishes his parents had known — and the simple reframes that change everything about how families support their neurodivergent kids.
