Meet Patrick

Patrick Hogg is a speaker, trainer, and consultant dedicated to empowering young adults and the organizations that serve them. As the founder of Discover Your PEAK, LLC., he equips first-generation college students and early-career professionals with the tools to navigate life after graduation, discover their passion, and live their purpose.

​

A first-generation college graduate, Patrick’s journey began at California State University, Northridge, where he struggled to find direction. Nearly failing out in his second semester, he realized that simply getting into college wasn’t enough—he needed a plan to thrive. His breakthrough came when he joined the Black Student Union (BSU), surrounded himself with mentors, and took on leadership roles. As BSU President, he launched a mentoring program for local high school students, a transformative experience that revealed his true calling: helping young people reach their full potential.

​

Patrick also collaborates with organizations to design youth programs and train staff to improve student engagement and retention. With over 17 years of experience in workforce training, curriculum development, and program management, he helps nonprofits and educational institutions build impactful programs.

From First Generation College Student to 
Social Entrepreneur 

As a first-generation college student,  Patrick stepped into uncharted territory, navigating an unfamiliar system without a clear roadmap. Balancing academic pressures, financial struggles, and the weight of his family’s dreams often felt overwhelming, but it also fueled his determination. It wasn’t always easy, but each challenge became an opportunity to grow and discover his strength. Every milestone he achieved was a powerful reminder that breaking barriers isn’t just about reaching a goal—it’s about proving to myself what’s truly possible.

Life off Stage.

Off stage, my life revolves around the things that truly ground and inspire me—family, exploration, personal growth, and community. Spending quality time with my wife and daughters is my greatest joy. Whether its taking family trips, celebrating their latest accomplishments, or quiet family dinners at home. My family is the foundation for everything I do. 

 

​I’m passionate about travel, especially discovering new places and cultures. Exploring the world opens my mind and fuels my creativity, offering fresh perspectives I bring into every aspect of my life. Closer to home, I find balance and energy in exercise, whether it’s a walk along the beach, a hike, or a morning workout. ​Learning is a constant in my life.

 

I believe growth happens when we stay curious and connected to those around us. Being part of a community that shares ideas, supports one another, and strives for collective progress keeps me motivated to improve—not just for myself, but for the people I serve. These are the elements that shape me, giving me purpose and the drive to inspire others to lead meaningful, purpose-driven lives.
