Patrick Farrell is an entrepreneur, software engineer and innovator based in New York City. He is originally from Virginia and went to school at Virginia Tech. He spent the first few years after school in the DC area but had a major shift happen in his life when he was offered a job in NYC in 2011.
Patrick spent the next 5 years working at a startup for 2 PhD and this really jump started his career as a software engineer and entrepreneur. During those 5 years, he learned so much about software, business, product development, testing and interacting with customers that has really propelled him to where he is today.
In May of 2016, Patrick quit his job in Manhattan and booked a one way ticket to Cartagena, Columbia. He boarded the Nomad Cruise that changed his life forever and taught him all the skills that allowed him to start his own business.
During that first Nomad Cruise cruise, he learned more about photography, videography, social media, and building businesses from other like-minded entrepreneurs. Over the next year, he traveled Europe, Thailand, and Bali while building his photography, video and software portfolio.
He has a passion for teaching others about business, taking awesome photos and how to fly drones. Patrick believes that you can live a life of passion and enjoy your career while making money doing something you love! And since then he has started leading retreats, building software platforms and attending conferences to spread his knowledge and message to others.
