Hello. This blog is written by Paul Williams. I’ve been posting since 2009. You can reach me at hi@defiantsloth.com.

By day: SVP, Solutions & Growth Strategy at Publicis Groupe.

All other times: find me in the midwest hanging out with the wonderful woman I’m married to (Ashley); and/or reading, gardening, walking our dog Gertie, indulging in food and drink, brewing coffee over and over again, kayaking, watching cinema, packing bags for short trips up the North Shore, or… crushing a beer at a dive bar while ripping through pull-tabs.

Whereabouts

  • Currently holed up in St. Paul, MN with my partner and my dog
  • Previously: Chicago (15 years) // Madison (on/off two years)
