Patrick Storck

SHORT BIO: I was raised by wolves. My mother and father (human) were not confident in the public school system, so they enrolled me in an experimental program in which I would be taught four days a week by wolves, then spend Fridays using what I had learned in the wild (or local parks). It’s like Montessori, only with more staring down your foe. Naturally, this developed my love of David Mamet. I convinced the pack to put on a more urinary version of GLENGARY GLEN ROSS, and the rest was history.
