Patricia Parrish
Patricia Parrish (Tricia), Co-Founder, Fearless Independence, LLC, ran the “near-death-birth” gauntlet of care for a child with cerebral palsy, while also raising young twins, leading to over 20 years of advocacy for special children, their parents and families. With improbable opportunities and rich life experiences, Ms. Parrish has guided daughter Delaina into a top-tier university, where she is thriving. She has carved a niche as an “ability communicator”; speaking, writing and teaching disability rights and resources, family dynamics, educational paths, and faith. Parrish relies on a broad range of marketing experience with numerous corporate entities to guide her. An entrepreneur and visionary, Ms. Parrish has founded numerous non-profit organizations. She was honored for her life-long volunteerism as a Paul Harris Fellow from Rotary International, and by Brevard County (FL) Commissioners. She holds a BS in Advertising, University of Florida and attended Birkbeck College, London.
