During the 2007 financial crisis, Peter moved to Romania, where he consulted, taught, wrote, and returned to work in the media and journalism. During that time, he led courses in retail banking to industry executives and served as managing editor and anchor of a nightly business TV show. He was a senior lecturer at the Maastricht School of Management’s MBA program, teaching critical thinking, writing, strategy, and game theory. He was also a business columnist for Esquire, Elle, and other publications. His consulting roles included serving as executive editor and publisher of a major national newspaper and as marketing director for one of the country’s largest media companies. His book, I’m Tired of Being Stupid, based on his MBA lectures, was translated into Romanian and published in 2015 by Editura Humanitas.

In 2016, Peter moved to Silicon Valley, where he has held positions as a lecturer and teacher in critical thinking and writing to corporate executives, managing director of an international investor relations advisory firm, executive editor at a startup financial news website, and editorial director for financial services and fintech clients, including Discover Financial Services and BNP Paribas.
