Paul's journalism career has seen her cover significant events such as the 2020 and 2016 Presidential Elections, the Russian war on Ukraine, and the Covid-19 pandemic. During her tenure at CNN/HLN, she covered President Obama’s second Inauguration, the Newtown, CT school shootings, the Virginia Tech shooting, Hurricane Sandy, and several high-profile court cases.

As a committed advocate for children and teens, she serves on the National Advisory Council for the One Love Foundation and is involved with Girl Talk Inc, where high school girls mentor middle school girls to build self-esteem and combat bullying.
