Paul is an experienced technology leader who grows early- or mid-stage companies to maximum success. He creates balanced value for all stakeholders including customers, owners, employees, suppliers, the community and the environment. He believes that the best success is achieved when all pull together and coalesce into a complementary ecosystem. While achieving this dynamic can be more challenging, it ultimately builds lasting value that all involved recognize and thus become more motivated and committed together, resulting in the highest shareholder value.Paul specializes in assembling highly competent and effective teams tailored to the needs of the enterprise. There is no more important element or predictor in a company’s success than the quality of the team that drives it, and Paul is especially skilled in this area and understands and acts on that premise. Paul has systematically built expertise in all the areas of technology business, starting as a young engineer with hands-on experience in manufacturing and engineering with complex medical devices. He transitioned into technical management in a variety of startups in increasing roles of Operations management before shifting to a technical sales and marketing role for Metron, a laser metrology firm. This firm was also his first transition into a CEO role, which led to the recent President & CEO position with MicroConnex. This experience developed deep functional awareness of how technology companies operate and the skills to guide them to success, which he used extremely effectively in the successful company sale to a strategic buyer.He actively mentors others in the community and supports their professional and personal growth. He is the proud father of two teenage girls and keeps quite active in the outdoors every chance he gets, including cycling and hiking, and enjoying horseback riding with their three horses.
