Patricia attended FDU's Florham campus (New Jersey) in the late 80s to early 90s, graduating summa cum laude. Her bachelor's degree major was Political Science. This was followed by a master's degree in Broadcast Journalism at UMD (Maryland). She worked as a computer trainer (Washington, DC) in the 1990s, and has been running her own technology consulting business the last 20 years. She was the UK voice of Avast the antivirus for a time - meaning, she knows how to say 'threat has been detected' with gusto! Patricia was also the creator (and voice) of a technology segment for a syndicated American radio show. She is wife to David and mum to Cameron and Justine. Patricia lived in the US for a year in 1984, and from 1987 to 2000; she moved back to the UK with her family in 2000.
