Brian Patterson serves as Chief Marketing Officer for Aligned Dental Partners, where he leads marketing strategy and the digital infrastructure driving growth across all practice locations. He brings a data-driven, investor-grade approach to patient acquisition, treating marketing as a lever for EBITDA and enterprise value rather than simply visibility. He builds the systems that allow each practice to scale efficiently and predictably.

Brian spent nearly 20 years building and advising high-growth companies before joining Aligned Dental Partners. In 2005 he co-founded Go Fish Digital, a premier digital marketing agency, and as CEO scaled it into an industry-recognized, award-winning firm of 100 marketing professionals serving top-tier brands such as GEICO, Marriott, Amazon, and Airbnb. Under his leadership, Go Fish Digital earned recognition as a four-time Inc. 5000 honoree and a multi-year US Search Awards "Agency of the Year," along with numerous awards for its SEO, paid media, and content campaigns. In 2023, Brian orchestrated the company's sale to private equity firm Trinity Hunt Partners, where Go Fish Digital now serves as the platform brand for its digital marketing portfolio.

Brian holds a B.S. in Information Technology from George Mason University. He lives in Tampa, Florida, with his wife and their four daughters.
