Meet Peter

What do you enjoy most about wealth management?

The rich varied skill set it requires, from client education to investment research to marketing to professional development.

What's the biggest challenge?

Helping clients prepare for and manage the unknowns.

What do you love most about being part of Aspiriant?

The breadth and depth of the knowledge base geared to specifically serve our current and future clients.

What quality of yours makes you best suited to what you do?

My ability to listen to and work well with people with a wide range of personalities.

How should people think about their wealth?

Wealth creates opportunities.

What do you love to do outside of work?

Go fishing with my wife and friends, whether it's stalking permit on the flats of Belize or chasing sailfish off the coast of Guatemala.

What would you be doing if you weren't working for Aspiriant?

A test I took in college suggested chicken farming as a possible career path. But really it's hard for me to see myself working anyplace else but Aspiriant.
