Paul travels all over the United States providing keynotes and interactive workshops for Head Start and Early Head Start conferences, and his workshops are without PowerPoint! He also provides workshops directly for staff and leadership, either at their location or virtually.
Paul was a police officer / detective for close to 13 years and during that time, he spent much of that time in the Street Gang Unit. It was there that he realized he wasn’t having the positive impact he wanted – he wanted to help people live happier and safer lives.
In 1998, he left law enforcement and started his non-profit, The Village Project, which he ran for over twenty years. During that time, he provided his Violence Prevention/ Self Esteem classes and groups for tens of thousands of children and parents using the curriculum he created.
Paul keynoted his Seven Steps to Phenomenal Management Skills to the “Largest HR Conference Ever!” in Singapore, he’s received the Governor’s Child Abuse Prevention Award and has appeared on Radio Disney and the Today Show.

I have been to management workshops, not leadership training. This has totally changed my perspective and encouraged me to propel forward in developing my skills.
I am honored and humbled to be a recipient of the Head Start WEST’s Legacy Scholarship. The scholarship helped me get one step closer to achieving my goal of becoming a Head Start Director.
I took part in The disproportionate impact of COVID 19, and how to provide “real” support for black/brown children and families and I just want to say this was an amazing webinar. I hope we can look forward to further conversation on this topic.
Thank you so much for making events like this! I really enjoyed and learned so much teaching strategies to implement STEM in the classroom.
The HR Network was an excellent opportunity to network and learn the best practices from other HR professionals within Head Start programs. You will be amazed by the level of talent and experience of the participants.
The Summer Camp training was powerful and inspiring! Each presenter was very engaging, it’s hard to even pick a favorite session!
The Leadership Challenge training was very relevant to my work as a Head Start leader! Great facilitation; stayed with the program yet allowed time for individual and small group reflections.
