Barry Peters
Founder & CEO
When I started my career as a Corporate Internal Auditor for billion-dollar companies like United Technologies, Quaker Oats, TransAmerica, and Rheem Manufacturing, I had no idea just how deeply I’d become entrenched in the art and science of financial problem-solving.
It was in those roles that I sharpened my skills in internal controls, analytics, and accounting-the building blocks that supported me through every chapter of my career.
From there, I transitioned into a divisional business manager role with Spectravision, where I oversaw the financial health of 40 offices and over 400 employees. It was a fast-paced and rewarding challenge that gave me a front-row seat to the inner workings of large-scale financial operations.
But I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit, which led me to the first of five stints as CFO for startup companies.
At ICS Communications, I worked alongside Hollywood elites like Merv Anderson, David Letterman, and Michael Milken, to scale a telephone and cable TV company that ultimately sold to MCI. After that, I helped grow YouBet and played a pivotal role in taking Avtel Communications public, before helping its management team take it private again.
With each role, I became immersed in new industries, new challenges, and new opportunities to refine my expertise in financial strategy, operations, and fundraising.
Along the way, I consulted to businesses in medical billing, telephony engineering, and workers’ compensation.
While my career path has had twists and turns, including my personal journey of recovering from six back surgeries, it has also brought me to where I am today: Managing Director of Premier Tax and Finance, a firm I’ve proudly led since 2010.
Since earning my CPA in 1984 and later my Enrolled Agent (EA) designation, I’ve focused on making taxes, accounting, and business services approachable and efficient for my clients. Whether I’m working with an entrepreneur launching their first venture, an individual facing complex tax situations, or a CEO managing a multimillion-dollar operation, my aim is always the same: to offer clarity, confidence, and workable solutions.
At Premier Tax and Finance, we specialize in everything from tax preparation and representation to P&L management, financial analysis, corporate structuring, and beyond. Our clients range from startups to established corporations, and we’re committed to being the trusted advisor they can count on.
