Patricia earned a Bachelor's in Secondary Science Education from the University of Hawaii at Mānoa with a focus on physics, with electives in engineering that required a strong mathematical foundation — then went on to complete a Master's in Science Education from Montana State. That depth of training gave her more than credentials; it gave her a genuine respect for mathematics. She spent a decade in the classroom — including years teaching alongside Reid on the same middle school team. As Experienced Educators grew and evolved, Patricia stepped into the math role naturally, helping students build real understanding through subject tutoring and putting that same foundation to work in test prep, where math is a large part of a student's score. When she isn't working with students, Patricia can be found chasing her two young boys, planning the next road trip, or dreaming up her next creative project. She is the kind of person who makes adventures out of ordinary days — and she brings that same energy to helping students find their way through the test.
