Colleagues describe him as "I have had the good fortune of knowing Paul and working with him first as a customer to the brand where I was the COO and later as an independent consultant. Paul and his business partner Jeremy have built an outstanding brand based on the simple tenets of quality coffee, friendly inviting spaces, and outstanding hospitality. Paul is a tremendous leader who aspires each day to espouse the virtues of servant leadership, humility and excellence. You can often find him in shops working with the team, in the Roast House perfecting the next cup of coffee or in an origin country hand picking the next crop of coffee to fill a Birch Coffee Cup. His creativity in the cup is something that helps differentiate the brand and I look forward to seeing where he takes the brand next.", "I had the pleasure of working for Paul at Birch Coffee from 2018-2020. I can honestly say working alongside Paul felt more like a partnership than working “for” someone. He’s strategic, honest, and more than anything, he taught he the meaning of ownership and excellence. I can honestly say are very few owners out there who are actually willing to get their hands dirty and focus on the details, and work with the team hand in hand.", and "I have known Paul since Birch was in it’s early stages. I had the ability to observe his dedication to excellence and what he put into it. So much attention to every detail. All the while committed to developing staff along the way. What he and Jeremy have built is an amazing testament to planing and executing on every level every single day."

Listed skills include Marketing Strategy, Food, Social Media Marketing, Social Media, and 36 others.
