The voice of experience.
Hi, I’m Paul.
Husband, father, neighbour, and your Ward 5 Councillor since 2010.
Burlington is where my family put down roots and where I have spent my working life giving back. I am Ward 5’s City and Regional Councillor and currently serve as Deputy Mayor for Strategy and Budgets and as President of Halton Community Housing Corporation.
Before politics, I had a long career as a finance executive, restructuring companies, teaching strategy and process improvement internationally, and serving as President & CEO of the Institute of Management Accountants in the United States. I am a Fellow Chartered Management Accountant and a Chartered Global Management Accountant.
In 2010, then-Mayor Cam Jackson asked me to run. I said yes because Burlington deserved someone at the Council table who could read a balance sheet and stand up to projects that didn’t pencil. Five terms later, I’m still doing that, and I’m not done.
