Patty Kavan was born in Tennessee but moved to Carlsbad, California, when she was 6 months old, because her father was stationed at Camp Pendleton. She eventually attended Palomar College, where she studied English Literature and Child Development.

Patty was the office/sales manager at a wholesale floral nursery for over 25 years before joining Jodie K Schuller & Associates. As the Office Manager/Executive Assistant for JKS & Associates, she is the first person to greet you when you enter the office. She is responsible for communications between staff and clients and completing the various day-to-day functions that keep the office running smoothly. Patty also coordinates the insurance billing, web maintenance, newsletter design and graphic arts as well as assists with HR. Her role is all encompassing as the office manager and executive assistant at JKS.

When not at the office, Patty enjoys spending time with her family and pets. Gardening and going to concerts are two of her favorite pastimes!
