Paul is a problem-solver at heart and brings a pragmatic approach to his work in solutions engineering and his work as a whole in supporting CanAssist’s operations.

I live and work as a settler on the unceded territories of the W̱JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip) and SȾÁUTW̱ (Tsawout) First Nations. I'm grateful for the generations of stewardship that have shaped these lands and for the ongoing presence and leadership of these communities. I am committed to challenging the structures that perpetuate historical and ongoing injustices. This commitment to reconciliation is both a professional and personal responsibility.
