videos for his high school. These videos exemplified the very best of Frenchtown High and were used to represent the school during a student/teacher exchange program conference in Laos. In 2018, Paul worked freelance with ELM Utilities and Services to produce an ad that was featured in American Airlines and to potential investors in China. That same year, Paul's videos began to get recognition at the elementary school, which led Paul to make a video connecting young grade students with high schoolers, encouraging them to do their best and look forward to high school and beyond. Paul has earned several accolades; in 2019 Paul was accepted into MSU's chapter of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, graduated from Frenchtown High School with High Honors and with National Honors Society recognition, received Frenchtown's Elk Student of the Month award, and was a recipient of many grants and scholarships. The son of Polish immigrants, Paul enjoys visiting family in Poland, rock-climbing, running, and all things outdoors.
