Peter develops relationships that are founded on trust; he utilizes goal-based planning strategies to assist clients in achieving both short- and long-term financial goals. He helps clients define their objectives, then develops investment strategies designed to achieve those objectives.

He held Associate positions at Chapdelaine Tullett Prebon, a leading interdealer broker in fixed income markets, and G.X. Clarke & Co., a broker-dealer that specialized in U.S. government securities; over these years, Peter collaborated with portfolio managers, research analysts and traders, presenting value-add trade ideas to clients. Peter draws upon this experience today while working with institutional clients; he leverages J.P. Morgan's award-winning research1 and trading capabilities, in order to meet institutional clients' needs.
Peter received a B.A. from Molloy College, and has obtained his CFP® certification, which requires him to act as a fiduciary when providing financial advice to clients.
