“The case study Paul wrote for the Diver­sity in Phil­an­thropy Project knocked the ball out of the park! It cre­ated a new stan­dard for our other case study pieces. We want to go back and rework them based on the stan­dard Paul set.”

Henry A.J. Ramos
Diver­sity in Phil­an­thropy Project, Director/​Lead Consultant

“Paul has a com­pre­hen­sive under­stand­ing of the impor­tance of var­i­ous stake­holder con­tri­bu­tions to mis­sion fulfillment—of human, social, and finan­cial cap­i­tal. His under­stand­ing con­tributed to suc­cess­ful com­mu­ni­ca­tions, both oral and writ­ten, to var­i­ous audi­ences. His writ­ing, in par­tic­u­lar, demon­strated a thor­ough under­stand­ing of both the topic and how to effec­tively com­mu­ni­cate con­tent to stake­holder audi­ences.”

“Paul is a tal­ented writer, smart man­ager, and adept strate­gist. His pro­fes­sion­al­ism and com­mit­ment to social change are con­sis­tently evi­dent in his demeanor and in his work prod­ucts. His con­tri­bu­tions to the Mar­gin­al­ized Males Fun­ders Group demon­strate his knack for mes­sag­ing and his keen grasp on the fine details of com­mu­ni­cat­ing strate­gi­cally and effec­tively.”
