Paul Miller has a B.A. in Accounting from Bentley College. After 4 grueling years and fresh out of college he took a job waiting tables in his college town. Those years gave him the time and space to seek out true interests and passions. After a mime workshop with Tony Montanaro at the Celebration Barn in 1998, Paul knew that he wanted to invest his life in performance and the juggling arts. Much of that next year was spent living and working in a juggling community on the Big Island of Hawaii, honing his skills. By 1999 he was back stateside and touring with a nationally touring juggling troupe promoting healthy nutrition. That same year Paul founded Flow Circus and began touring his first 1-man performance Boxes. Paul has been performing and teaching ever since.
