Patrick Oyeku - Cancer, Faith, Diversity & Wisdom
Today, we sit down with the talent Patrick Oyeku, the Sr. Vice President of Strategic Accounts at Kforce. He is responsible for the planning, execution, cultivation, and monitoring of account acquisition and penetration of customers in designated segments. Additionally, he helps enhance client and consultant relationships to expand the Kforce brand.
Patrick is a St. John's Redstorm alum, a fantastic NY Knicks fan, and a father of three beautiful girls. He is engaged to the wonderful and talented actress Amirah Vann, who was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series at the 48th NAACP Image Awards in 2017.
Patrick grew up in Rockaway, NY, and was the youngest of four siblings. His mom originated from the Caribbean, and his father was from Nigeria. Sadly, his mom lost her battle with cancer when he was 14, and you will hear how his dad stepped up to be the rock for their family. Growing up, his parents taught him always to be a man of your word, take care of yourself, and be comfortable being YOU!
Additionally, being authentic to your character was always a theme in his house. Those are now values he teaches his children—faith and the power of belief are also a massive part of his upbringing.
Patrick and I had so much fun on this episode, so please check out his episode and share it with others who know him! Thank you, Patrick, for joining me!
