Audrion C. Paul is the CEO of Skillzplus Entertainment Inc. Skillzplus Entertainment Inc. is a local entertainment company that provides a one stop shop for clients looking for event and wedding services. They deliver event planning, videography, photography, DJ services, photo booth rental, and more. He entered the Air Force in November 2000 into the Traffic Management career field. In March 2001 he graduated from the Traffic Management Apprentice course in San Antonio, Texas. He has held numerous positions in Air Combat Command, Air Mobility Command, Air Force Materiel Command and now serves as the First Sergeant to the Commander of the second Aircraft Maintenance Squadron.

Audrion’s love for music came from his dad who was a club owner in Atlanta in the mid-90s. While stationed in Turkey he felt the calling to start DJing for his fellow airmen to mimic a club type atmosphere. It was then that he knew this was more than something to do to pass the time. This was a passion that would soon become the start of his second career, and thus Skillzplus Entertainment was born. In 2017, Audrion received military orders to move from Japan to Barksdale Air Force Base. Louisiana. It was then that he decided the business would move from a home business to a brick-and-mortar business. This would allow the business to grow, ultimately providing the local community with extraordinary customer services and remarkable event entertainment services.

Since setting down the roots of Skillzplus Entertainment in Shreveport he has led his company to service the local community in more ways than just entertainment. Before COVID 19 struck, Skillzplus Entertainment led a weekly homeless food drive with 17 volunteers that served more than 179 plates. They also conducted clothing drives and collected enough clothing items and supplies to increase quality of life for community members. Additionally, he started a youth intern program that helped teach, develop, and hone professional skills of young females recently coming out of foster care. His dedication to our community did not stop there, as his company sponsored a show promoting awareness for “Stop the Bullying” in the school system and around the local community.
