Paul served in the United States Air Force as a security specialist and military historian for six years. Upon discharge, Paul focused on chain drug management with Revco then CVS. These experiences in leadership, management and chain pharmacies prepared him for the future. 

Wishing to focus more on patient care and service, Paul decided to take a leap of faith and open his own independent pharmacy in 1999 with Julie. He currently co-owns and operates the Medicine Shoppe Pharmacy in Greensburg, IN and Blue River Pharmacy in Brownsburg, IN.
