The Arc
Paul Stephens was part of the Innovate! Inc. team that delivered government technology solutions. He's one of the names that comes up alongside the core Innovate crew — Josh Long, Catherine Nolan, Larry Spackman, Matt Brumberger, Stacey Cogswell, Tom Perkowitz, and Tim Lynch. When that many talented people remember working with you, it means something.
At Innovate, the work was government Salesforce — EPA program offices, complex multi-year implementations, strict compliance requirements, and the kind of work where reliability isn't optional. The team that did this work delivered consistently, and Paul was part of that delivery engine.
He left Innovate, joining the list of talented professionals who moved on to other things. But his name remains part of the Innovate story — listed among the people who made it a special place to work.
