Paul was born, raised and educated in Newfoundland. During the mid to late nineties, he was a member of the popular St. John's based comedy troupe Cat Fud with Mark Critch, Chad House, and Greg Rex. Following a string of acclaimed self produced shows and appearances on CBC TV, CBC Radio's Madly Off In All Directions, and the makeshift stage at Her Majesty's Penitentiary, the troupe disbanded in 1997 to attempt maturity.

In the following years he travelled and worked in Alberta, Newfoundland, and Texas, with some trips to the UK thrown in for good measure. Performing took a back seat to the day job, but after returning from the USA to live in Canada, he wrote and performed the one man sketch comedy Full Frontal Lobotomy at the 2002 Atlantic Fringe Festival. In 2003, he returned with the Fringe Hit A Canadian Idle, another one man sketch comedy, this time directed by Mark Critch.

In 2004, he performed the Fringe Hit Another Night on George Street. In February of 2004, Paul began performing standup comedy in Halifax with the Halifax Comedy Project (aka Comedy Dawgs). This experience has subsequently led to a performance at Montreal's The Comedy Nest and an appearance on CBC Radio's Madly Off In All Directions in August 2004.

He makes his home with his new wife Julie in Halifax, Nova Scotia where, by day, he is a Professional Engineer in the Offshore Oil & Gas Sector.
