My name is Gati Patel and I am very excited to be a part of Ridgecrest to support the needs of our students. I recently moved to Huntsville from Atlanta Georgia after getting married. When not at school, I like to travel with my husband and spend time with friends and family. I will also be supporting Goldsmith and Morris this year.
