What drives you?

I strive to be the best, and I want the same for the company we’re building.

I want Cielo to deliver the highest level of customer service, the most well planned spaces a tenant could imagine, and the highest risk adjusted returns to our investors. If we do that — and I can also be the best husband and dad I can possibly be — then I can go to sleep at night knowing I didn’t leave anything on the table.

How do you envision Austin in the next 25 years?

I expect that Austin will continue to be one of the most sought after places in the country for people to live and work 25 year from now. This means our population could triple in that time, creating many challenges and opportunities. I believe that our urban core must continue to increase in density with more high-rise and mid-rise developments, just as we’ve seen over the last five years. The alternative is much more traffic and sprawl to the detriment of our environment and quality of life.

How did you start the company?

Bobby and I share Texas roots and were introduced by a mutual friend. I liked his vision and creative energy immediately. Two months later, we formed our company and bootstrapped it from there.

Why Austin?

Austin is one of the best cities in the world without a doubt. It appeals to people of all ages and just has so much going for it. We are the Capital of Texas, home of the University of Texas, soon to be home to a new medical school, the tech capital of the south, and the Live Music Capital of the World. Austin offers a beautiful natural environment and countless ways to enjoy it. It’s a business friendly city with a thriving restaurant scene. If you’ve spent a few days here eating barbecue, listening to live music, or water skiing on Lake Travis, you know why so many people want to be — and are becoming — Austinites.

Patrick Morrisey is a Mechanical Engineer and part of the leadership team as a Principal, and Vice President of the MEP Department at Encotech Engineering Consultants, a Central Texas boutique MEP and Structural engineering firm delivering professional services ranging from design to consulting.

When Mr. Morrisey relocated to Austin two years ago, he brought more than 15 years of engineering experience, particularly with landmarked buildings in his native New York City. He had a fast start in his career as he became the central point person for various projects and challenging scenarios, laying the groundwork for his ability to lead teams, as he understood all stakeholder trades. Being exposed to multiple commercial projects in Manhattan helped Mr. Morrissey understand how to visualize system configurations with extreme physical space constraints, an asset he adds to Encotech’s leadership team.

Upon joining Encotech, Mr. Morrisey became the Project Manager of a Fortune 500 FinTech Firm Campus tenant improvements for a new leased facility with approximately 133,824 rentable square feet and an adjoining Parking Garage. The project was right up the alley for someone who has managed thousands of square feet in commercial projects throughout his career. Since joining the Texan firm, he has participated in many commercial and civic projects. However, Mr. Morrisey is proudest of his mentorship contributions at Encotech. He has helped develop a department based on learning and exposure to different projects, offering designers and engineers a space for professional growth. “I have been integral to establishing useful tools for designers and engineers so they can streamline production and focus more time on learning and critical thinking where needed.”

Before moving to Austin, Mr. Morrisey was a Principal at a firm in New York, where he accrued a rich experience with commercial projects. Being the MEP engineering lead for the Retail Redevelopment at the World Trade Center, a 600,000 SF project spanned the four main towers on the 16-acre site. Similarly, he led a team of engineers for the Integrated Project Delivery for the American Airlines Admirals Lounge renovation at JFK International Airport. He spearheaded the technical site assessment for the Deutsche Bank’s 1.3 million square foot renovation. The opportunity to relocate to Austin two years ago and “switch gears to join a smaller company with a reputation of taking in very ambitious projects excited me, and I have not looked back once!”
