About the speaker

Patric Richardson, also known as The Laundry Evangelist, is America's go-to expert for laundry quandaries. He studied merchandising apparel and textiles at the University of Kentucky and then left for an incredible career in luxury fashion at McAlpins, Neiman Marcus, and Nordstrom. Patric opened his designer vintage store, Mona Williams, in 2013. The store carries a small, curated collection of fine laundry products, sparking the curiosity of his Minneapolis/St Paul customers.

Patric started sharing his expertise at his much-talked-about and often sold-out Laundry Camps, where he teaches people new and better ways to care for all of their apparel and home textiles. These camps sparked a revolution, prompting his first book, Laundry Love, his second book House Love, and a television show, The Laundry Guy, on HGTV and Discovery+. Richardson has been featured in both local and national media-including Live with Kelly and Ryan, the Washington Post, Good Morning L.A., the Wall Street Journal, NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, The New York Times, WGN, Twin Cities Live, the Pioneer Press, GMA3, The Tamron Hall Show-and international media, including the BBC, The Globe, Daily Mail and Die Welt.
