After being accepted to UNCSA for Stage Properties Patrick finished his gap year at Zap Props, the largest prop supplier in the midwest. Here he had much more interaction with another one of his loves which is refurbishing and fixing antiques for people to rent and buy. Here Patrick improved his fine detail skills and learned some new ways to create as well as he helped make interior design props for restaurants like Portillo’s and Big Chicken. Although his tenure at Zap was somewhat short it gave him unforgettable memories and priceless lessons.
