Expertise

Organizations place Patrice in seats that oversee rules and money: bank president, mayor, state regulator, and audit chair on public company boards. She has taken a rejected building plan back to voters and chaired a state agency while it wrote its first strategic plan. At the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, the first step under her chairmanship was asking the state auditor to place auditors inside the agency. The strategic plan followed from their recommendations.

Industry

Patrice works in energy, banking, and utilities. She has practiced law, held executive roles at two community banks, served as mayor of Edmond, and chaired the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, the state regulator for oil and gas, utilities, and telecommunications. She has served on public company boards in energy and banking since 2015.
