Nick Pasquarosa, MST – 2017 40 Under 40 Honoree

Professional Associations/Memberships:

Xero Partner Advisory Council, Young Entrepreneur Council, Forbes Technology Council, Board Member of FLIP Society a 501(c)(3) Organization

As founder and CEO of Bookkeeper360, Bookkeeper360 has grown to be recognized as the #1 Xero Bookkeeping firm in 2015. Long Island Business News has recognized me as one of their 30 under 30 in 2016 to be awarded this coming Fall 2017. In 2016, I was also recognized as one of Long Island’s Top CEO’s by LIBN for exhibiting leadership, integrity, performance, and community outreach.

Beyond being an evangelist for cloud accountants and writing topic conversations for Forbes, I am a strong believer in giving back to the community. As an animal lover, I have aligned myself and Bookkeeper360, to be a supporter of Canine Companions for Independence. Canine Companions provide assistance dogs to those in need free of charge. Being able to support such a great cause, and see the real results this organization creates for those in need, leaves myself and the team wanting to do more, by way of community outreach. LIBN recognized these efforts and awarded me with their annual Corporate Citizenship Community Award in 2016.

Favorite influencer(s) (authors, bloggers, mentors, speakers, etc.)

Michael Bloomberg for his ability to scale such a large firm while retaining his 88% ownership. Warren Buffett for seeing financial potential before the rest of the world in multiple markets and spearheading these large investments. Most of all, Larry Ellison, for creating Oracle and immense wealth for himself, by way of some of the largest cloud database and infrastructure software that exists today.
