From a young age, Patrick has always looked to contribute and help his home in any way possible. He became involved with advocating for open space in Jersey City and became a member of multiple 501©3 organizations within his Ward and Citywide. He currently sits on the board of the Jersey City Parks Coalition and is the President of the Leonard Gordon Park Conservancy – which many know as Mosquito Park. His advocacy has led to the renovation of our beloved park, which sat unattended for close to 30 years. The final straw was in 2012, when the playground was set on fire and the city let it sit there for over a year. Now, this park will bring in residents with events, modern design, and its eyes set on the future.
