Patrick Fitzhugh's father was an Air Force Academy graduate, and he grew up hearing stories about the Academy and the honor of serving our country. Fast forward to September 11th, 2001: after terrorists attacked the United States, Fitzhugh expedited his plans and, like his father, joined the military.

He served our country from 2003 to 2007. When he left the military, he was determined to continue serving his fellow veterans. This commitment marked the beginning of his career with USAA.
