Patrick Burgess
Patrick partnered with The Chopping Block in early 2017 as the founder and CEO of MyRedBag - a new and innovative application in the food and retail space centered around community. He started his career working on Wall Street before deciding to make the leap to focus on his passions of entrepreneurship and technology full-time. He is also a self-taught computer programmer that enjoys cooking but wants to eliminate the associated pain points (such as recipe inspiration and forgetting ingredients). MyRedBag is a member of fbStart, Facebook’s exclusive program for startups that demonstrate "high quality apps and an engaging user experience”. While not working on MyRedBag, he is involved in the Chicago food and tech community, enjoys running, beach volleyball, cooking and eating out.
