Paul began leading the Sault College Athletics Department in 2018, after a move to the Sault from British Columbia. A native of Sault Ste. Marie, Orazietti views Sault College as a unique challenge to build something special in this sports minded community.

Since his arrival, he has endeavored to change the athletics culture at Sault College through greater promotion of sport, the introduction of a homecoming event and the Athletics Scholarship Breakfast. He also oversaw the College's first National Championship in ACHA – Division 3 men's hockey. Orazietti is determined to create the best experience possible for students at Sault College through strong varsity and recreation programs.

Prior to returning to Sault Ste. Marie, Orazietti won two Vanier Cups as both a UBC player and coach. Paul served nine seasons on the sidelines with the University of Bristish Columbia (2010-2019) with his last two seasons serving as the Associate Head Coach.

His extensive coaching and scouting resume has also seen him work with Football Alberta, the University of Calgary, NFL World League, as well as a guest coach with the Calgary Stampeders and BC Lions.
