Paul DiPietrantonio

Paul DiPietrantonio '97
Chair

A graduate of the Ȥ¹º²Ê, class of 1997, Paul is the Chief Operating Officer at Hunington Properties. With nearly 30 years of experience in the field of accounting and finance, he is a proud first-generation college graduate whose parents immigrated from Italy.

Beyond his distinguished career, Paul is an avid advocate for promoting Jesuit ideals and the Ȥ¹º²Ê. His love for service took root at the Ȥ¹º²Ê, where Paul was an active participant in annual volunteerism trips and on-campus events. This passion to serve others and give back has grown outside of Ȥ¹º²Ê through participation in day of service events, involvement in local volunteer organizations, and fundraisers benefiting charitable organizations. Through fundraising events, Paul has engaged with past national political leaders on topics central to the transformative power of supporting one another.

Paul enjoys spending time with his family; wife Elizabeth, daughter Lucy, and sons Franklin Harvey  and James Edward at their home in The Woodlands, Texas.
