Patrick Creaven

Chief Operating Officer

Pat Creaven brings a corporate attorney's trained eye for detail to EnablePay, and makes sure all the "i"s are dotted and the "t"s crossed as EnablePay is engineered into a major force in the merchant services industry.

Pat was formerly Counsel in the Banking & Institutional Investing Department in the New York office of the law firm of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, where he was lead counsel for agent banks, syndicate lenders, hedge funds and Fortune 100 corporate borrowers. Pat says the large law firm experience – working on complicated transactions, under tight deadlines, with smart and talented people – prepared him well for the high energy and entrepreneurial environment of EnablePay.

Although EnablePay is not yet the size of the clients he worked for in his previous position, Pat has the advantage of knowing in exact detail what EnablePay will have to look like as it grows in to its vision.

Pat graduated with a J.D. from Fordham University, where he was an editor of the Fordham Law Review. He received his BA with High Honors from the University of Notre Dame.
