EC Scholar Alum Honored: "40 Under Forty" Leadership Award

In April of 2015, the Division of Student Affairs of East Carolina University premiered the 40 Under 40 Leadership Awards. This award was created to recognize emerging leaders that received their start at East Carolina University, as well as those who have used their ECU experiences to make significant impacts in their respective professions, local communities, and around the world.

EC Scholar alumnus (’08) Patrick O’Shea was inducted into the Class of 2019 award cohort. O’Shea is currently a resident physician in the Combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics Residency Program at UNC Hospitals. He received his MD at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, his MBA at the Fuqua School of Business, and his BS in Exercise Physiology from East Carolina University. O’Shea is also the co-founder of MedServe, a non-profit that exposes pre-medical students to primary care careers.

O’Shea and the rest of our honorary Pirate alumni will be recognized during the 5th annual Division of Student Affairs 40 Under 40 Leadership Awards Banquet on March 23, 2019 at the Main Campus Student Center. Tickets may be purchased at www.ecuarts.com.
