Pat has been a Pom since 2003.  Her many years of teaching baton twirling and marching in South Milwaukee, WI was a perfect match for the Poms. Pat has played almost every role within the Poms, with her current responsibilities as the Choreographer and Marching Director.

Despite past surgeries and a current diagnosis of Stage 4 cancer, Pat continues to split her time between the Poms busy schedule and dancing to live music every week. Pat has remarked that she is just too busy to be sick.  Pat lives each day to the fullest and her continuing resilience, despite great obstacles, is admired by everyone.
