After graduating Georgetown Law School with high honors, Paul worked as a lawyer on Wall Street at a top tier international law firm (Willkie Farr & Gallagher) and as an investment banker at a major Investment Bank (Credit Suisse), executing multi-billion dollar M&A transactions for Fortune 100 companies.


While on Wall Street Paul was hired by Jay Leno to write jokes for “The Tonight Show." After living a secret double life as a Wall Street lawyer/banker by day and comedian by night, Paul left Wall Street to go into entertainment full time ... if he didn't he would have had a nervous breakdown trying to keep the two worlds separate.


Paul was featured on “The Daily Show” as a correspondent and in “The Daily Show” segment, “Second Opinion,” in which Paul skewered the medical profession playing an HMO representative with a less than sympathetic mindset. 


He has hosted several shows and pilots for Comedy Central, CBS, HBO and VH-1.

He’s interviewed A-list guests who are at the pinnacle of the worlds of entertainment, pop culture, music, politics, science, sports and more, including …


Paul McCartney, Stephen Colbert, Katie Couric, Bryan Cranston, Judd Apatow, Kristen Chenoweth, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Jay Leno, Bill Burr, Adam McKay, Jeff Fager – Executive Producer of “60 Minutes,” Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bob Costas, Lewis Black, Hardball’s “Chris Matthews,” Thomas Freidman of the New York Times, Rob Reiner, Artie Lange and many more.
