About Peter

I have a logical, realistic, common sense, decisive, practical way of looking at the world -- with an obvious cross over to my professional life.
I have worked on the NYSE as a floor trader and currently work at a boutique financial research shop covering a variety of sectors.
I graduated with a degree in Political Science from George Washington University in 1996 but am not a fan of politics outside of watching the reality show that it is and being current.
If there is one thing I know I can be helpful with it is in crafting resumes. If you send me yours - I will edit and tweak it as best I can.
But I am happy to help with networking [best ways to maximize your efforts] and practical advice for navigating the business world as well as interview coaching.
I have no professional expertise per se - I've just been told I am good at it and looking for a way to help!
