Paul has been with Boom since 1999 and is a multi-faceted workshop leader and percussionist. His keen interest in contemporary, popular, and global musics has brought a wonderful perspective to Boom’s workshops. His knowledge of world music helps companies think differently about the way they interact within their own corporate community and shows them new and exciting ways to explore their own creativity.

Paul also holds the position of Professor of Cuban Music at York University, Visiting Artist in Percussion at the Etobicoke School of the Arts, and has previously served on faculty at The Royal Conservatory of Music and the University of Toronto

Musically his wealth of experience spans a broad variety of areas and settings ranging from performing Afro-Cuban music to steelband, flamenco and Broadway show orchestras.
