About Tony Paris

Tony Paris grew up in Flint, Michigan, a city shaped by industry, resilience, and the belief that working people keep the world moving. That heritage is the foundation of how he works today: show up on time, do the job right, respect the people around you, and finish what you start.

Tony's heritage is Ozark Cherokee Native American, Celtic Irish, European Italian and French, and Black African. He speaks American English fluently and reads the slang and variations of Canadian, Australian, and British English without missing a beat. He also works professionally as a transcriber in seven additional languages — French, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Urdu, Chinese, and Arabic — reading, writing, and adjusting dialect and register so the message lands natively for the audience, whether the exchange is casual or executive-level, peer-to-peer or elder-to-youth.

Over 34+ years of professional experience, Tony has worked across five distinct career tracks: content and editorial, inside sales and client success, SEO and AI visibility (across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Alexa, Siri, Google, and Bing), cloud technology support, and a Michigan Works workforce-services track tuned for state job-database matching. He is remote-native, HIPAA and PCI trained, and currently available for W2 opportunities. Tony is a happily married father of two living children under the age of six, and he lives in Livonia, Michigan, with his wife Emily.
