About Me

 Welcome to Crossing Borders!!!!!!


I am Carl Patterson, your trusted partner in navigating the ever-evolving landscapes of education and technology. With over 16 years of experience in Consulting, Education, K–12& Higher Ed. and Technology, I founded Crossing Borders in 2020 as a vision brought to life. I officially incorporated the organization on September 9, 2024, in memory of my mother, an avid educator whose legacy continues to inspire my work. During my undergraduate studies, I participated in learning support courses, gaining firsthand insight into academic challenges. As an experienced educator, consultant, and technology professional, I am deeply committed to empowering learners and organizations to reach their highest potential.


At Crossing Borders, we go beyond traditional consulting by delivering white-glove managed information technology support services alongside our educational expertise. We understand that today’s success depends on the seamless integration of learning and technology. Whether you are a student seeking guidance, a parent searching for effective resources, a professional pursuing growth, or an institution striving for innovation, our tailored solutions are designed to meet your unique needs with precision and care.


Our Mission: Is simple: to create transformative educational and technology experiences that inspire, support, and equip individuals and organizations for sustained success. We believe in preparing for tomorrow today, and our approach is grounded in collaboration, innovation, and a deep understanding of both educational and technological challenges.


Our Vision: Soaring to your next level of excellence.


Thank you for considering Crossing Borders as your educational and white-glove technology consulting partner. Together, we will pave the way for a smarter, stronger, and more connected future.
