LEADERSHIP & BOARD
BIO
Patrick has been a part of the I/DD community for over 35 years. Every member of his immediate family has or is in some way working in the field of human services. He is also proud to say that he had 2 foster brothers, whom had developmental and intellectual disabilities; their lives had a substantial impact on shaping his perspective in how people with I/DD should be treated: no differently than anyone else. He believes the people we support have dreams, wishes, and desires for their own life and he wants to be here to help them achieve those goals.
Prior to coming to Loveland, Patrick served in Senior Management roles at both Suburban Adult Services Inc. and Claddagh Commission Inc.; during that time, he focused on program development/expansion and gained an extensive knowledge of regulatory and corporate compliance.
To Patrick, Equality Through Opportunity means that everyone has the opportunity to live their lives in the manner in which they desire. We are not in the position to place a limit on that person but to give them the opportunity to reach their own dreams.

V.J. lives in Venice with her husband, Eric. They have three wonderful children—two are married and living in Minnesota, and their youngest is nearby in Southwest Florida. Outside of work, she loves creative projects, remodeling houses, traveling, kayaking, swimming, and walking along the beach with their dog. Quality time with family and soaking in the beauty of Florida are some of her greatest joys.
To V.J., equality through opportunity means creating a world where every person—regardless of ability, background, or circumstance—has access to the tools, support, and spaces they need to thrive. It’s not about giving everyone the same path, but about removing barriers so each individual can pursue their fullest potential with dignity, purpose, and belonging.
