Q. Who is your role model?

A. My father, Dennis Buren, is my role model.  With distinguished service, multiple Purple Hearts, Bronze Star, Air Medal, and many others from Vietnam, he encompasses that of what many deem to be a role model.  Many people owe my father their lives with his valiant actions, yet he believes he was just doing his job.  Ever since I was little, I have looked up to my father for being a great teacher, provider, and inspiration of how I should live my life. I am lucky to be his son.

 

Q. What is your favorite season and why?

A. My favorite season is winter.  With more snowfall than anywhere else (besides Buffalo), Erie offers so much.  Snowmobiling, snowboarding, ice fishing, and trail running are a blast, but the snow also offers you an excuse just to stay inside, sit on the couch and watch a great movie without feeling guilty.

 

We recently sat down with Pat and learned a little about him.

 

Q. Tell us a little about yourself.

A. I am a 6-year veteran of internet marketing and advertising with substantial experience in web design and graphic arts.  This coupled with my love for helping anyone in need allows me to fit in with my great friends at Bianchi Honda.

 

Q. What do you enjoy most about your position at Bianchi Honda?  What are your current duties?

A. My current duties at Bianchi Honda include web design, graphic arts, SEO and SEM management, and integration of other online platforms including social media outlets and email campaigns.

 

Q. What’s something about you that most people don’t know?

A. I may get criticized for this, but I am a nationally ranked cheerleader and cheerleading coach.  I grew up with an older sister, Angela, who got me into the sport and the rest was history.  Traveling from state to state and competing was some of the best times of my life in one of the toughest sports I have ever attempted.

 

Q. What do you enjoy spending your time doing outside of work?

A. One of my favorite activities is running.  Some may call me crazy, but this year I completed my third ultra marathon.  Going out distances farther than your normal 26.2-mile marathon is just a thrill.  This coming year I hope to compete in the Oil Creek 100-Mile Trail Challenge and crush it yet again.
