Paul Longo has lived a relatively unconventional life. In his youth, he plowed through dyslexia (before teachers had ever heard of it) and learned that there is, indeed, more than meets the eye. In college, he read Don Quijote in Spanish for the first time and discovered an interest in anthropology. He went on to complete 3 graduate degrees and has lived and worked in 7 countries and 9 states since then. In addition to having been an ordained monk and an applied research and evaluation consultant, Paul has taught Anthropology, Education, Spanish, Research and Evaluation Methods, English as a Foreign Language, and Digital (iPad) Art in formal and non-formal, mainstream and special educational settings. Nearly completely retired, these days he serves on advisory boards and continues to teach when he is not making art and enjoying life in Southeast Ohio.
