Paul (they/he) has been volunteering as a weekly CHIRP DJ since 2024, but started making playlists ever since the days of Napster/LimeWire and "burning" CDs for trips in the car. Born and raised in southern California but a Chicagoan of over a dozen years, they lean into disco, pop, house, funk, darkwave, city pop, R&B, punk, and music around the globe. But there’s always room to appreciate the ocean of music that's out there!
