Earlier Struggle
Born in San Jose, California, starting at an early age he was ready to take on the world and anything that came in his way. At age 6, his parents, Phu and Le Nguyen, picked up their bags and kids and took a permanent road trip to sunny Florida.

At age 12, Peter’s father passed away right before his eyes and from that day forward, he was never the same. His father’s death ignited a deeper passion in Peter that changed his life forever.

Early Success
At age 16, he was the youngest to receive top sales performance out of 600 (3 months in a row). He received countless awards in mathematics competition statewide and nationally. His senior year in high school, he was able to place top 10 in the world in Mathematics at the International Science & Engineering Fair in San Jose, CA.

Peter wanted more than just head knowledge from a Business degree at the University of Florida. At age 19, he started his first company, WhizNotes, to get practical business experience. WhizNotes was a tutoring service that lead mass exam reviews for mathematics and science courses at the University of Florida. One year later, he started his second venture, Shox Printing, a graphic design and full-service printing firm. With a team of 17 employees and interns, Shox Printing soon expanded its enterprise to a web development firm (Shox Web) and an award-winning marketing and promotions firm (Shox, Inc.), working with hundreds of local to Fortune 500 clients. Shox was able to see it’s first million in sales in just a couple of years and was named by Advertising Specialties Institute Top Minority Business and Top 30 under 30 Business Owners.

Internet Empire
He began building his own products and services online almost ten years ago. One of his first breakthrough product was a teeth whitening product that sold over $2 million in the first four month alone. He has built dozens of other successful Internet campaigns and is one of the foremost authorities in the Internet space. He has since partnered with one of the fastest growing CPA networks and one of the largest mobile advertisers to help build their own products internally with the network. In the past year, he has launched Advertiser360 and has opened up an agency called BizWorks Group and continues to build his own campaigns each day.
