Even while serving our country in the U.S. Army Military Intelligence Corps, Paul began his course of study in Business and Information Systems. After his time of service, Paul began building his career in the Chicago area, first as a mainframe programmer, and later as an Analyst, DBA, and Project Manager. In 1984, Paul relocated to Atlanta, Georgia as an IT Project Leader with the Federal Reserve Bank. Several years later, Paul founded Information Management Solutions, a consulting company specializing in IT staff augmentation for various corporate clients. Through a roll of the dice - or more likely divine intervention! - Paul met Mark Granger while both were assisting a client with a major billing system implementation. Paul and Mark shared a passion for helping their clients do more while spending less. As a result, ProActive Resources was born in 1995.

Paul and his wife Becky have been married 30 years.  All four children are grown and married, and their youngest - Micah - is a lean, proud United States Marine (Semper Fi!).  Paul likes getting away for the weekend with Becky, taking off on his motorcycle, playing guitar, and worshiping, teaching and serving at Villa Rica Christian Church.
