Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Paul Campbell has lived on three continents, sailed several oceans, and had many unique life experiences, most of which included his family. Paul was an athlete from a young age and eventually became a professional.
His lifelong dream of making the NHL came to a horrific halt after a terrible car accident almost ended Paul's life and took the life of his good friend. After coming out of a coma, Paul started a new journey, which began in a wheelchair.
He went on to earn two degrees from the University of New Brunswick. Today Paul teaches, coaches, changes lives, is a ski instructor, and a guest lecturer. While Paul never played major league hockey, he received a higher calling: to his own NHL (National Helpers League).
Paul told people he would make the NHL, and even though his NHL is very different, it is even more important in the global scheme of things.
Paul's goal is to help others by sharing his experiences and hopes in his inspiring book, Goodnight Paul - The Journey to My NHL: Living the Dream
