His Excellency was born in South America on the first day of December 1958 to an Amerindian mother (late Easther) and a mixed-race father of Amerindian and African descent (late Eric). His grandmother was African and came from the city that is now Sekondi-Takoradi in Ghana, West Africa. Her mother was taken as an African slave in the proclamation of labour to British Guiana, now Guyana as slaves to work and serve on the sugar plantations that today brands Guyana famous for its Demerara sugar.

 His Excellency was extremely fond of his African grandmother and his African roots. Sadly, he had only spent a short time with her up to five and was taken away to England by his father.

 His Excellency was determined to explore his roots and visited the village where his grandmother was born and spent time in the region. He recounts the memory of a sense of belonging when landing in the village of his ancestors and felt an overwhelming spiritual sense of serenity, beauty and peace. So much was the feeling of intensity that it left an indelible and lasting feeling of his profound connection for Africa and its people. He later went back, stayed and worked in Ghana, Nigeria, for some seven years. He was appointed Royal status by HRM Eze Dr Amb. Chukwudi Ihenetu (King of the Igbo people of Ghana).

 Sir Patrick excelled in his journey to become a highly educated and intellectual academic. Aside from being a notable investment banker, Sir Patrick is also a fund manager, professional communicator, author, and philanthropist. His intelligence and educational strides are evident in the role he plays in multi-national organizations and financial institutions. Some of which have included investment banking and bond trading on Wall Street. He is currently a Senior Banking Redemption Judge for the International Court of Justice-International Criminal Court (ICJ-ICC) and UN Ambassador for World Peace. His Excellency has left an impact everywhere he has graced, which is evident in feedback about him and his work. In 2018, he became a knight under the directory of the sovereign rulers of China and Hong Kong and was awarded a knighthood for his banking and charitable services.

Having had his elementary education in London, Sir Patrick moved to the USA for further education in a bid to obtain an MBA.

In his bid to continually equip himself with more knowledge and information in his chosen field, Sir Patrick has since earned different degrees from Southampton University, England, and the University of Hertfordshire, England, where he obtained his PhD in Economics and International Banking. He finally submitted his thesis titled, Impact of Quantitative Easing Measures on Interest Rates, Financial Markets, and Economic Activity: A Case Study of USA to the Department of Finance and Commercial Law of the Haworth College of Business.
