Blake Patterson brings over two decades of hands-on experience and leadership in the pool and spa industry. He began his career at Great Plains Pool and Spa Products in 2000, starting in an entry-level position and working his way through nearly every role in the company. His deep operational knowledge, strong leadership, and commitment to excellence ultimately led him to become the company's owner.

Under Blake’s stewardship, Great Plains became recognized for its efficiency, profitability, and sound management practices. These qualities made the company a highly attractive acquisition target, and in 2022, it was acquired by a major industry leader.

Beyond his business accomplishments, Blake is deeply rooted in family and community. He and his wife are raising two sons, and he is actively involved as both a coach and board member in his local Little League. An avid outdoorsman, Blake enjoys hunting, fishing, and spending time in nature.

Blake’s combination of entrepreneurial success, operational insight, and community engagement makes him a valuable member of the AquaVantage Advisory Board.
