Jim Patrick is a third generation owner of Patrick & Co. founded by his grandfather in 1873.
Jim found his calling to help others when he learned about cleft lip and palate and just how inexpensive it was to change a life with one surgery.
From there he became a Co-Founder of Rotoplast over 25 years ago and then in 2004 left to become a Co-Founder of Alliance for Smiles where the differentiating mission was to add treatment centers to cleft treatments because treatment centers help to train local medical staff and also address the ongoing needs of all cleft patients.
He lives in Orinda with his wife and can found be aboard his sailboat during many weekends.
