Steve Neary
Delray Beach, Florida
Steve Neary was born on February 21, 1969, in Connecticut, but he spent his formative years between Massachusetts and Florida. Raised by a tenacious and pioneering single mother along with his three brothers, Steve’s early life was shaped by his mother’s determination to provide her sons with ample opportunities to succeed. His mother was atrailblazer in the real estate industry from the late 1970s through the 1990s, a period during which she carved a notable career against significant odds. Steve’s heritage is deeply rooted in the values and dreams of Greek immigrants, making the family’s connection with the Greek Orthodox Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, a significant part of his upbringing.
Education played a pivotal role in Steve’s development. He attended a small private school in Southeast Florida, where he believes he gained the character, foundational values, and lifelong friendships that would guide him throughout his life. Steve was also an avid sports enthusiast, particularly excelling as a left-handed pitcher in baseball during his school years.
Steve’s journey into the business world began at the University of Massachusetts, where together with a family member and a friend, he co-founded a military subcontract manufacturing company. This venture proved highly successful, particularly during Desert Storm, when they adapted an old mill into a military-approved manufacturing facility—remarkably, the only one in the U.S. capable of meeting the immediate needs of the military at that time. The company eventually expanded, serving both military and commercial sectors, developing several well-known products, and securing numerous patents. Steve eventually sold his shares for an undisclosed sum, marking a significant milestone in his career.
Today, Steve serves as the President of Oneiro Holdings, Inc., where he continues to apply his sharp business acumen and innovative leadership skills. Beyond the boardroom, Steve’s personal life reflects a deep commitment to family, particularly in his role as a father. Having grown up without his own father, who left when Steve was very young, he cherishes the opportunity to be a present and supportive parent to his teenage son. Watching his son grow and engage in various activities has become Steve’s primary hobby, reflecting his dedication to enjoying and facilitating experiences he did not have himself.
