Peter Koppes Email & Phone Number

I was 16 years old when I decided to learn to play the guitar. I got my first guitar shortly after this decision and poured myself into learning this instrument. Throughout the rest of my high school years I spent at least 3 hours a day, every day, playing and teaching myself the guitar. I was so invested in learning that I bought different books and watched countless videos on theory and technique. By the time I was 18, I had progressed to the point that I was playing shows with a band in different venues around my city. My determination, curiosity, and desire to grow as a person contributed to the success that I saw with my guitar, and it is these same qualities that make me successful in the classroom and the workplace. My Determination and curiosity motivated me to pursue an academic career where I received Bachelor’s degrees in both Economics and Psychology and am currently working towards a Master's degree in Economics. During this time, I learned learned how to communicate with others, solve complex problems, and how to determine when I needed to be a be a team player and when I needed to step up and be a leader.
