Default Macro - update the cell to the left after a find

Hello,
I have a macro that I need to find a certain cell and update the cell to the
right of that one with a certain value. My Macro is below; it currently finds
the record for Gregory T Pattens. I then want it to update the cell directly
to the right of this one with the value "n/a". Gregory T Pattens will not
consistently be in the same location, so I can't have it locked down to
always update a specific cell. I had thought that the RC[1] would move to the
right but instead it's overwriting Gregory T Patten's name with
"RC[1]=""n/a"""

Thank you!!!

Columns("B:B").Select
Selection.Find(What:="Pattins,Gregory T", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _
xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:= _
xlNext, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "RC[1]=""n/a"""
End Sub

Thank you! - Jennifer
