About Patrick
Patrick Myers founded Calculator Academy in 2017 to make practical calculations easier to access, understand, and use. Over nine years he has built and refined hundreds of the site's calculators, turning formulas, conversions, and estimates into clear results for everyday users.
Patrick holds a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Rowan University. That engineering background shapes how every Calculator Academy tool is built: formulas are implemented and tested directly, units are handled explicitly, and results are formatted so they can be checked against the underlying math.
Today Patrick leads calculator development across the site's technical and general-use categories and guides Calculator Academy's technical direction, publishing standards, and ongoing user experience improvements.
