I am a proud child of two immigrant parents. I was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada to my father, Hayden Von Paul, a Black man from Trinidad and Tobago, West Indies and my mother, Narima Khan, an Indian woman from Guyana, South America.

​

I ended up graduated with a Commerce (BComm (Hons)) degree and although I understood the value of a formal education, I spent  a lot of time acquiring the practical experience needed to execute the theories I learned in school. From working with a promotion team, public speaking, management, and instructing, I took every possible opportunity to gain more experience. Sadly, I knew that I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth and, although my parents put me in the "right" schools and the "right" activities, I still had to be accepted in order to gain an opportunity. This fact pushed me to join as many groups and teams that I felt would propel my career forward. 

I ventured to St. Kitts and Nevis, West Indies, on a Canadian International Development Agency internship to develop entrepreneurship programs. Later, I traveled to England for three years to work for my aunt's, Yasmin Khan's, medical aesthetic training company, KT Training. Myself and my aunt reopened the consulting division, KT Solutions and through that company she was able to consult for the 2013 winner of The BBC's The Apprentice, Dr. Leah Totton.
