Paul was born in Houston, TX, on August 27, 1952.

He has developed apartment communities throughout the U.S. using Housing Tax Credits as a source of equity and has been involved in the development of hundreds of communities providing housing to lower income families throughout Texas and the southwestern states.

Paul enjoyed visiting with strangers, friends, and family, and he was genuinely inquisitive about history and his genealogy. He loved cooking and preparing meals with his kitchen gadgets. He appreciated a good cup of roasted coffee, enjoyed traveling, photography, and creating pottery. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
