Paul Peterson

Paul Peterson is the Managing Partner at Wiss. He is grateful to work with colleagues who have built a culture of genuine care and innovation. Together, they have created an environment where people feel valued and are empowered to excel. It’s this unique culture, grounded in authenticity and mutual support, that make him the proudest. 

As the accounting profession evolves, Wiss enthusiastically embraces the potential of technology and AI to elevate our role from number crunchers to trusted strategic advisors. But beyond the numbers and technology, Paul’s success will always be rooted in people—in building teams that thrive and helping others grow personally and professionally.

Throughout his career, Paul has been fortunate to have incredible mentors and teammates who have deeply influenced his perspective on leadership and teamwork. Growing up as an athlete, sports instilled in him resilience, adaptability, and a belief in continuous improvement—lessons that remain at the core of his professional life today.

Paul has always been drawn to stories of underdogs who rise and succeed against the odds. That’s why Wiss’ collaboration with Team Walker means so much to him—especially our financial literacy initiatives that equip young people with the tools and confidence to build strong futures.
