Bio
Paul Safsel
When Heath and I met at Grey a few years ago, I felt I had met a kindred spirit. His approach to the business was exactly the way I have been operating for years; pour your heart and soul into the work, and treat people fairly along the way. Heath's attention to detail is wonderful. He will keep pushing til the idea is bullet-proof. He has a calm and disarming demeanor, which puts co-workers and clients at ease. I hope we get to cross paths again.
