About Paul
I am a long-time Caledon resident who is proud to raise my family in this great community. Deeply rooted in our township, I experience firsthand the qualities that make Caledon unique—from our scenic rural landscapes and active parks to our welcoming neighbourhoods and strong community spirit.
With over 25 years of professional experience in the federal public service as a physical scientist, I have devoted my career to environmental stewardship, protecting water quality, and safeguarding community health across Ontario’s watersheds.
Beyond my environmental career, I am a passionate community advocate, active volunteer, and approachable local leader who believes municipal governance starts with listening. Whether supporting youth recreation, volunteering in grassroots conservation efforts, or connecting directly with neighbours on front porches and at community roundtables, I am dedicated to bringing people together, championing local voices, and ensuring Ward 4 remains a safe, thriving, and vibrant place for families and future generations.
