Canada. He grew up in Brampton, a suburb of Toronto, of Italian
(father) and Jewish (mother) descent. He attended Mayfield
Secondary School for the Arts, then attended one year at Ryerson
University for theater, but dropped out when he started to land
Toronto based television and film roles. In his first major
television role he starred opposite 'Linda Hamilton, Scott Speedman

Nickelodeon's Animorphs (1998), which ran for two seasons. When he
was 21, he attended an international cattle call audition for an
unnamed Dreamworks film. A week later he received a call from his
agent: after seeing his tape, Todd Phillips wanted Paulo to fly to
New York to screen test for Road Trip (2000). After testing for
Phillips and Ivan Reitman, he was offered the role of Rubin Carver.
