Whether it comes to finding new tax opportunities or new personal experiences, Peter does not settle for status quo. A resident of Baltimore County, Maryland, with his wife and three children, Peter loves discovering and experiencing new restaurants just as much as he loves discovering upcoming and talented artists and musicians. He is curious about different cultures and enjoys traveling to meet new people and experience their customs. He and his family have traveled throughout Australia, Indonesia, Hong Kong and the Caribbean. During his travels, he obtained his PADI open water dive certification in a freezing cold English lake where he had to explore hidden treasures such as buses, cars and sunken UFOs. When he finds himself at home, Peter coaches soccer, gardens and volunteers in his community.
