Lesley Paul graduated from Ferris State University, Michigan in 1993 with a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy and worked alongside her father in the family pharmacy.

Lesley made an extraordinarily tough decision in the fall of 2013 to sell the business. Not able to completely stay away from pharmacy, she currently works part time as a locum pharmacist in the Collingwood area.

Lesley is a charter member and past president of the Rotary Club of Collingwood-South Georgian Bay. Her Rotary history truly began in 1987-88 when she lived in northern Sweden as a Rotary Youth Exchange student.

As a strong advocate for community health and well-being, volunteering at CGMH was the perfect fit. In 2014 she was elected to the CGMH Board of Trustees and has served as chair of Governance, Quality, Nominating, Community Engagement and the Municipal Advisory Committee.

Lesley is a lifelong resident of Collingwood and was born at CGMH. She is married to Doug and they have two sons. She enjoys skiing and hiking, spending time at her cottage but is truly happiest with her running shoes on.
