Peter earned his undergraduate degree from Colorado College in 1992 and his Juris Doctor from the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 1997.

The project also involved creating entities to manage reserved rights, conservation properties, and a historic water transmission system. Since forming his own firm in 2008, he has continued to guide clients through county, state, and federal requirements. His work helps projects move through review, permitting, planning, and compliance with clear guidance.
