Former President and CEO of Sharp HealthCare, Peter ended his tenure having expanded the system from two hospitals to a group of seven hospitals and two medical groups that cared for one third of San Diegans and was the largest private employer in the City. After leaving Sharp he refocused and reorganized the Legler Benbough foundation and became President and CEO of that Foundation. An ardent supporter of UC San Diego, Peter serves on the Institute for the Global Entrepreneurship advisory board. He generously donated to IGE’s Founders Fund.
