Paul, who born in Mexico City and is a graduate of NYU, is a third-generation Irish American whose paternal great-grandfather emigrated from County Cork to Massachusetts. His grandfather eventually migrated to California, where he became the first eye surgeon in the state. “I believe one of the things that I got from my Irish side is the ability to manage my own happiness. My grandfather has always been like this and it is something that I don’t feel I had to learn from him – I have it from him,” he says. Paul and his wife, Milena, live in New York City with their four children, Eva, Boyan, Mila, and Timo.
