Paul Romano Ferreira

Paul believes that the key to harnessing the exceptional talents of our military veterans in the corporate world is a combination of business guidance, legal counsel, and entrepreneurial innovation. He is an accomplished military, legal, and financial officer who operates at the nexus of military strategy, corporate governance, and entrepreneurship to affect lasting worldwide change. Growing up in the Ironbound—a tight-knit working-class Portuguese neighborhood in Newark, NJ—he learned firsthand the importance of a strong work ethic and loyalty to the community. These convictions still drive him to enhance the world around him while working to create opportunities for his military community.

With 30+ years of service in the United States Army Reserves, including two combat tours of duty in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, Paul has demonstrated he puts the welfare of others before his own, goes a little further, endures a little longer, and looks a little closer to see how he can add value for his clients without thought of recognition or gain.

Paul has managed $4+ million lease negotiations, negotiated multiple government contract vehicles to secure over $1 million in R&D revenue and uncovered millions in waste and abuse by leading state health program investigation. From leveraging legal and financial expertise to successfully obtain a Florida medical marijuana treatment center license to negotiated multi-million-dollar sales purchases Paul has a proven results driven track record of success.

A polyglot, Paul speaks four languages—English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French—and understands the importance of culture and the strength of diversity. Paul is a Bachelor of Accounting, a Juris Doctor, a Certified Public Accountant, and a Certified Fraud Examiner. He is licensed to practice law in Florida, New Jersey, and New York, and has the highest-level security clearance.
