Paul is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of ideeli. Since launching the site in 2007, Paul has driven the company's innovative vision, managing a high-growth business that now delivers carefully-curated, limited-time sales every day across the categories of apparel, accessories, home, beauty, kids, travel and experiences to the site's nearly 4 million U.S. members.
Being a leader in the world of online entrepreneurism is nothing new for Paul. In 1989 he founded Cypress Research, which combined e-commerce with embedded upgrade technology years ahead of the internet. Cypress Shopper, a component of the company's MegaPhone fax software for Macs and PCs, shipped over 10 million copies to 23 countries. In 1994, he founded Aveo which invented the now pervasive concept of pre-emptive technical support, with its products adopted by Hewlett Packard, Gateway, Dell, Kensington and Logitech. Paul's third company, Alset, Inc., was founded in 2001 and helped leading brands such as Best Buy and Micro Warehouse use the internet to simultaneously improve service and marketing.
Paul is a co-inventor for two U.S. patents and for ten years served on the board of Volunteermatch.org where he helped corporations manage their volunteer efforts with thousands of non-profits around the world.
He graduated from Yale University and is a Henry Crown Fellow at The Aspen Institute.

From the Travel Editor:
We’d like to say we knew about Costa Rica before it got popular, but the fact is that this destination-of-the-moment – home of this week’s sale on the award-winning Parador Resort & Spa – has long been on the radar of savvy, adventure-loving travelers. And it’s not hard to see why, considering the country’s protected rainforests, incredible biodiversity, expansive beaches, and world-class surf breaks.
It’s easy to get caught up in the idea of tropical beaches, and Costa Rica’s long, white ones are certainly a draw, but if you plan to just sit...
When we need a wardrobe pick-me-up, nothing quite does it like street style pics of our favorite celebs. But what's a fashionista to do to achieve these looks--on a budget? It was this question that spurred us to create our Celeb Style series, where we source pieces to match those worn by the style stars you love. Look for these sales twice every month, and you'll find the covetable looks you've spotted on fashion's elite--at the super-privileged ideeli prices you know and love.
What wouldn't we give to fit into Blake Lively's traveling pants. She's a classic...
We're immensely thankful to have (dare we say) the best Facebook fans ever. From chiming in on our oh-so-heated style debates to letting us know if the latest trends are a hit or miss, we can always count you to keep our page buzzing. So to show our appreciation for the cyber love, we’re bringing private ideeli sales to Facebook.
Visit our Facebook page for insider access to an exclusive for-fans-only ideeli event. In keeping with our penchant for surprises, sales could feature any of the many ideeli finds you know and love: fab boots, statement necklaces,...
Empire waist, soft ruffles, and pleated overlay. No, we’re not talking about Jessica Biel’s prospective Oscar gown, we’re actually fawning over the Us Angel’s Girls' Renaissance dress above. This little number (and the adorable suits and playful frocks in today’s Kids' Special Occasion dressing sale) have us scouring to find a mini to play dress up with, stat. Gents-in-training will love getting dapper like dad in their very own three-piece suit (like this navy set from American Exchange Apparel). And little fashionistas will simply flip over the assortments of frilly frocks. Don’t believe...
If you’re anything like us, you have no intentions of doing the cupid shuffle this Valentine’s Day. What’s the shuffle, you ask? You know, that last-minute hustle to get your sweetie the perfect present before February 14th arrives. Well not to worry, because this January we’ve got you covered. Our trusty team has been working overtime to make sure that, come V-Day, you have more ways to show you care than there are messages in a box of conversation hearts. That's why today we're kicking off our Valentine’s Day Go to Gifts suite of sales, which will run Tuesday, January...
