Have you ever met someone who seems to have done it all and much more? Did you scoff and walk away? Yeah, us too. PK Creedon is the epitome of an over achiever, but we can’t help but love him for it.  

Patrick Creedon, mainly known as “PK”, is only twenty-one years old and has already accomplished more than one can imagine. PK was born in Mokena, Illinois, but has also lived in Germany, Ireland and England while studying abroad. Creedon is an International Business and Marketing major, which led to his passion for traveling. It is these passions that led him to become the Assistant Director of Marketing for Irish Life Experience LLC, where he promoted and recruited for an amazing study abroad program that he later had the pleasure of attending himself. He also worked with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as their Sponsorship Coordinator.

Jealous yet? Just wait, there’s more! Currently, he works for the United Way NFL Partnership as their Project Manager. He has the responsibility of supervising thirty-two interns and works closely with one NFL player on each team across the country. How many college kids can say they have worked with the NFL?

If this doesn’t seem like enough to take on, let’s just remind everyone that he’s the University of Tampa’s Student Body President. Here at UT, he works with the University to try to make the University of Tampa a more enjoyable place for everyone.

“I truly listen to the students and leverage the position to influence and expedite positive changes around campus,” Creedon says.

When he is not being Mr. President, you can probably catch him working in the Office of Admissions or performing, acting and dancing for the Fine Arts department here at UT. Talk about a busy schedule!

  

Although PK may seem to be all business, he’s also a thrill seeker. Whether through skydiving, cliff diving or hiking, PK loves to channel his inner bad a**. He also loves dancing to Beyonce. Focused AND fierce? Queen B would be proud.

When asked what his dream job would be, PK said, “I’d like to get paid to be awesome. Neil Patrick Harris is my idol.”

Though he’s on track for a great career after UT, there are more important things that PK is excited for.

“I can’t wait to legally marry a man that I love and start a family,” says PK when asked what he has planned for the future. Needless to say, PK has touched many peoples’ lives and strived to make the school that he loves a better place for not only himself, but for everyone else. The world better watch out because Patrick Creedon is on a fast track to being a major asset to the society we live in. Student Body President today, President of the United States tomorrow. Let the jealousy ensue.
