Patrick Hurst

CEO, Hurst Design Build Remodel 

Education: Holy Name High School 

What Success Looks Like to Me: Success is knowing I’ve made a difference in the lives of our clients and team members while still being present for my family.

What Would Surprise Someone to Learn About Me: I paid my way through flight school by starting my first business when I was 14 years old, detailing planes at a local airport. I earned my pilot’s license when I was 18. 

An Important Lesson I Learned: Don’t be afraid to try something new, take the trip or go on the adventure you’ve been talking about. Living in the moment and creating great memories is worth it. 

A Cleveland Spot I Recommend: Teschner’s Tavern in Richfield is one of my favorite spots. 

If I Could Star in a TV Show or Movie: Tommy Boy. One of the best lines is, “A guarantee is only as good as the man who stands behind it.” That idea has always resonated with me because in business, just like in life, people remember whether you follow through on your promises.
