and a certified mediator, as well as being the Executive Director of the
Center for Alternative Dispute Resolution in Albany, New York. He

He brings a keen sense of humor to all his work, which makes his trainings practical, engaging and fun. Peter believes that each person brings their own valuable qualities to a training setting, and he strives to bring out those qualities so that all participants may benefit from each person's knowledge and experience. Prior to attending law school, Peter spent several years as a community organizer in Detroit, Michigan and Dallas, Texas. In those communities he helped form neighborhood associations to address issues of concern to low income entrepreneurs in starting their own businesses.
