Paul Zipp, President, COO & CFO at James Avery

For many founders and leaders, building a company is about more than simply growing the business; it’s about growing a legacy. Passionate leaders are looking to build a clear path for their predecessors to follow—one that leaves the organization healthy and vibrant and dedicated to a clear, compelling mission. 

If there’s one Central Texas company associated with legacy, it’s James Avery Artisan Jewelry. This vertically integrated, family owned company is still located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, crafting jewelry in four Texas workshops—one each in Comfort, Fredericksburg, Hondo and Kerrville. Despite being a multi-channel retailer with eighty-three stores in five states and jewelry available nationwide, James Avery continues in the tradition of its founder, James Avery. The company strives to create jewelry with beauty and meaning, serve customers with graciousness and respect, give back to the communities where they do business, and create a supportive, inclusive environment where employees work, grow, and feel they belong.

With Paul Zipp at the helm as president, chief operating officer, and chief financial officer, legacy is top of mind for James Avery’s leadership. We’re thrilled that Paul will be joining us to share his insights on growing a legacy for and within an organization. 

Paul joined James Avery in 2012 as CFO, and his role expanded in the past few years to include oversight of Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Product and Real Estate Development.  Prior to joining the company, he served Continental Cabinets, a manufacturer of kitchen and bath cabinetry, as its CFO, prior to its sale, and spent over five years at the international accounting firm, Deloitte & Touché.  He has a BBA in Accounting from the University of Texas, Austin, and is a Certified Public Accountant.  Paul is married with eight children and actively involved in Bible Study Fellowship as a teaching leader in Kerrville, Texas.
