Pat began by twisting balloons. It all started when she watched a co-worker making some balloon animals and thought…”I can do that”! Well…it was harder than she thought.

She worked at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City where again she saw people making balloon animals and one of them asked if Pat was interested in becoming a clown.

Well after 1 year of being involved in the Olympic program she bought her first balloon kit.

30 days after the Olympics and the Paralympics were over PadyCake was BORN! She was found in full costume making balloon animals for kids at a make a wish function on Easter Sunday 2002!

Her new passion is making smiles and to bring joy daily to people everywhere!
