Patrick Post is proud of his Salida roots. His family was among the first Italian immigrants to settle in this valley. Upon graduating high school Patrick attended the University of Northern Colorado majoring in Broadcast Journalism. He spent the decade following college working as a Golf Professional at the Pinery Country Club south of Denver with dreams of unimaginable wealth. After 10 years the wealth remained unimagined and he was lucky enough to land back in the Salida area in 2011. He went back to college to get his Bachelor of Science in Accounting through Colorado State University while working at High Country Bank as a commercial loan officer and then as CEO of Mountain River Credit Union. In 2018 Patrick switched career paths and is now a licensed real estate broker with First Colorado where he currently is the company's residential property manager. He also helps clients buy and sell residential and commercial properties. Patrick married the love of his life Marcella in front of 30 of their closest family and friends in Maui. He now resides happily ever after with his wife, his two step-daughters, and his two bulldogs, Watson and Remy, In his spare time he enjoys many of the things that make this valley an amazing place: glamping, fly fishing, hiking, mountain biking, golf, and good Colorado craft beer
