== IT industry career==
Paul spent about 15 years of her corporate career working for [[NIIT]] India Ltd and [[Microsoft]] Corporation as an Instructional Designer, Content Publisher, User Researcher and Business Intelligence Analyst.

== Dance/performing arts career==
She started her teaching career by teaching private Bharatanatyam classes as early as 1990 with the blessings of her Guru (Padmashri) [[Leela Samson]]. She taught classes to corporate clients during the years 1996 to 1998 doing seminars on communication using dance as a body language. She has also assisted teaching (Bharatanatyam classes) at Kalashram Trust, New Delhi, founded and directed by Kathak exponent Pandit [[Birju Maharaj]].

After moving to [[Redmond, Washington]] to join [[Microsoft]] in 2001, she founded her own dance company called Arpan Performing Arts.<ref>http://www.dtol.ndirect.co.uk/listings.asp?country=USA&state=Washington{{dead link|date=April 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Her mission focuses on building awareness through the performing arts about social issues such as nature conservancy, domestic violence, mental health, and body image. Involved in outreach, she has partnered with local organizations such as the Kirkland Performance Center, Seattle Art Museum, Seattle Town Hall, Tasveer, Pratidhwani, Ragamala, and Northwest FolkLife. She created and curated the "Incredible Dances of India" for Seattle's Northwest Folklife Festival, which is running now in its sixth season. She was the first Indian-American Bharatanatyam Dancer to be featured in Seattle's Town Hall. This achievement is commemorated with a permanent signed poster which sits on the walls of Seattle's Town Hall.

Paul has performed extensively over the last 17 years. In 2003, she performed in "Dance to the Music" at Town Hall,<ref>{{cite news |title=Inner Rhythms |url= http://www.seattleweekly.com/2003-02-26/music/inner-rhythms/|publisher=[[Seattle Weekly]] |date=26 February 2003}}</ref> In 2004 and 2007, she performed at Utsav <ref>{{cite web|title=UtSav 2004|url=http://www.thumri.com/utsav/joyce.html|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110717053012/http://www.thumri.com/utsav/joyce.html|archivedate=2011-07-17}}</ref> and she also performed for Seattle's Partners in Preservation Initiative <ref>{{cite web|title=Town Hall|url=http://www.townhallseattle.org/sArticles.cfm?aId=122}}{{dead link|date=December 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

She was selected to be an invited choreographer at the Seattle ACT theater's rendition of the Ramayana in September 2012 and performed at a fundraising event in efforts to help save the Heritage Building of Town Hall. She shares her thoughts about choreography as a process in an interview at Penn State's Sangeet Samvad.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1l0WMHyUnUM</ref> [[File:Dr. Paul Yavanika preparation.jpg|thumb|Dr. Paul during rehearsals for her 2014 production, Yavanika|272x272px]]Paul presented a poster at the 4th National Dance Association conference on Pedagogy, Wellness, and Healing in July 2012 titled "Healing through Angika Abhinaya and Rasanubhava" (Virginia, USA). She served as a presenter and guest speaker at the Dance and the Child International conference (daCi) in 2014.<ref>http://daciusa.org/seattle.php?teachers</ref>

In the last ten years, Paul has served as a guest lecturer at the University of Washington and as an adjunct faculty member at Cornish College of the Arts and as faculty for the Academy Program at the Spectrum Dance Theatre. She was featured among the top 7 artists selected in a University of Washington Oral History project focusing on preserving the performing arts among the South Asian Community which premiered on December 9, 2019. The film, detailed interviews, and dance videos are available at the UW Library Archives.

In November 2019, Paul was featured in MOHAI Seattle's exhibit "Beyond Bollywood - Indian Americans who have shaped the nation," an ongoing exhibit until January 2020.

In 2019, Paul founded the Socially Conscious Artists Foundation (SCARF) whose mission is to create and foster art that brings awareness around social issues to galvanize change. Her recent January 2020 partnership with the Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI) for a conference entitled “A celebration of South Asian Resilience” featured an excerpt of her upcoming production mUrChati, and was called “BuddhiBhrama-- a mind disturbed." The work featured local artists and students of Arpan Performing Arts.
