About Me

Hey There 👋 I'm Paul, a recent University of Virginia grad with a degree in Computer Science and a minor in Technology Entrepreneurship. I love creating things that make life easier or more fun—whether that’s through product management, software engineering, or just brainstorming new ideas with a team. There’s something exciting about taking an idea and turning it into something real that people can actually use.

When I’m not working on tech stuff, I like to keep busy with things that help me recharge. You’ll usually find me playing soccer or basketball, messing around on my guitar , or tracking down the best food spots wherever I am. I’m also always up for trying something new—whether it’s a new hobby, a new restaurant, or a random road trip.

I’m big on collaboration and making work enjoyable. I genuinely believe the best projects happen when people bring positive energy and humor to the table, even when things get tough. If you’re someone who enjoys tackling challenges and having fun along the way, feel free to hit me up!
