Blog Publisher’s Comments:

As the article states, Paul was previously with Lellyett & Rogers (Nashville, TN).  L&R has long been the premier “reprographics services” provider in the state of Tennessee, if not one of the premier reprographics services providers eastern part of the U.S.

Hearty congratulations to Paul on his appointment as CTO of Barge Waggoner Sumner & Cannon.  Back in the early 1990’s, I had the pleasure of meeting a few of the principals at BWSC; great people.
