In addition to this podcast, Paul serves as Executive Director of Undergraduate Admission at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering.  He was born and raised in southern California and is a lifetime Dodgers fan. He enjoys traveling, discovering new restaurants in LA, watches way too many Food Network shows, and listens to podcasts every day. His current favorites are Smartless, Conan Needs a Friend, Up First from NPR, and The Daily. He studied Psychology for his bachelor's degree, minored in Public Management, and was active in leadership for community service groups Troy Camp and Dance Marathon while attending USC. When he's not working he enjoys spending time with his wife, daughter, and rescued pup and kitty in Redondo Beach, CA (well, maybe not the cat so much).
