You are here: Our Waiting Adoptive Families > Meet Patrick & Olivia D.
Dear Birthparents,
Thank you for taking the time to learn about us.
While we cannot pretend to understand the journey that has brought you to this moment, we want you to know that we approach it with deep respect, compassion, and gratitude.
The opportunity to become parents through adoption is something we hold close to our hearts. Since the beginning of our relationship, we have always considered adoption because Patrick grew up with an adopted sister he is close with. Patrick also grew up with a hereditary heart condition, and after genetic testing and discussions with various doctors, we have decided that adoption is our best path.
We have dreamed of sharing our lives with a child and going on adventures together as a family! While we are not perfect by any means, we are devoted to providing a stable home filled with love and unwavering support. We are committed to building a family where a child feels safe, valued, and supported for exactly who they are. If chosen, your child will grow up knowing how deeply loved they are, and we promise to honor your trust every day by loving your child wholeheartedly and unconditionally.

About Patrick, by Olivia:
Patrick instantly lights up any room that he enters, and his fun energy is so contagious! He makes me laugh every day and has the best attitude towards any situation in life. He is steady under pressure, patient, and respectful. Patrick is also very present and reliable. I know he will be an incredible dad who is dedicated to our family.
About Olivia, by Patrick:
Olivia is a very compassionate person. She thinks of others in everything she does. She is a fantastic wife and will be a great mother. She loves hard, and if she loves our child even half as much as she loves our dog, they will be the most loved kid in the world. She is ambitious and hardworking, and she achieves anything she puts her mind to. I am very excited about all the memories we will make as a family.

Our Home & Community
We live on the east side of Cincinnati. We are close to the bike trails, Cincinnati Nature Center, the zoo, and museum center. We own a home in a very safe cul-de-sac neighborhood, and we have a fenced-in backyard and patio that we enjoy all summer. We are extremely active people who really love spending time with family and friends and experiencing new things together. We are so grateful to have an incredible community of friends and family nearby who support us and our adoption journey.
We live in the Cincinnati, Ohio area. We’ve been married since October 2023. We work as a personal investment advisor and business/IT risk advisory consultant at an accounting firm. Our hobbies include walking our dog, going to coffee shops, biking, reading, cooking/baking, and traveling. We believe open adoption is a meaningful gift, allowing a child to grow up connected to their story and surrounded by love from all those who care about them.
Thank you.
Thank you again. We genuinely admire the love, strength, and courage it takes to consider adoption.
