Paul Murad is a small business owner in Southern Nevada, community activist, author, and Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Nevada. Paul is currently the President of METROPLEX GROUP, a company engaged in real estate brokerage, investments, and development. Murad, a registered member of the Democratic party, is also the founder of the Young Philanthropists Society through the United Way of Southern Nevada, and also serves on the steering committee for Global Green USA.
Murad was born in the former Soviet Union, and was raised in a one-bedroom apartment with his mother. His father passed away when Murad was five years old. While exceling in academics, Paul participated in a mandatory student program picking potatoes in government-owned fields. Despite being raised under an oppressive political regime, Murad managed to come to the United States with only a few hundred dollars to his name. He then worked his way through school, and obtained a degree in finance and international business from the University of Tulsa.
While working in business development for multinational corporations, Murad traveled the world, developing international business relationships and gaining first-hand knowledge of people and customs.
He also appeared as a slightly fictionalized version of himself on the show "Millionaire Matchmaker".
