Paul has been accused of being a continuous education junkie more than once. He has taken little pieces from several people and has formed his own treatment strategies. These strategies combined with his knowledge of several sports, has allowed him to address the root cause of the problem with his active patients. He has worked as director of conditioning for various youth soccer and volleyball clubs and has a passion for developing proper movement strategies in younger athletes.
Paul has spoken on various topics at the Washington State, and Regional, Strength & Conditioning conferences, the Washington State Athletic Trainer’s conferences and the APTA’s Combined Sections Meetings. He was a primary speaker for the course titled “When the Feet Hit the Ground Everything Changes.” As an instructor for the NASMI’s course “Lower Quarter Management of Overuse and Traumatic Injuries to the Running Athlete,” Paul enjoys keeping up to date with the current research to share with his course attendees as well as practice the newer ideas on his patients.
