Patsy Fleisch, a Novato resident of 36 years, has experience in the Novato Chamber of Commerce as an active volunteer, involved Chamber professional, including Chamber Ambassador for four years, 2013 graduate of Leadership Novato and community leader.

As a Mary Kay Independent Consultant, she embraces her role of empowering women to be their very best and mentors leaders toward success.

“I mentor and coach women in the area of self-confidence, leadership skills and financial independence,” Patsy says. “As an active Chamber volunteer, I develop personal relationships within the Chamber’s membership and help new and prospective members realize the benefits they can gain by being a member.

“I’m passionate about being involved, helping launch others and being a mentor,” she adds. “Working with the Mary Kay Ashe Foundation, I focus on two main areas locally and nationally – the eradication of domestic violence and the raising of money to research women’s cancers.”

Here at home, Patsy is involved with the Gilead House (a Chamber member), Bowling for Kids’ Sake, and Performing Stars Enrichment Program in Marin County. She has worked in an administrative capacity at Novato schools and for 30 years as a medical assistant before joining Mary Kay as an Independent Consultant.

Born to a family of military service – her father retired as an Army Lt. Colonel – she lived in Georgia, post-war West Germany, and played among the hills of the San Francisco Presidio. Patsy and her husband of 39 years, Ken, enjoy their three grown children and grandchildren.
