About

Peter Skwiot Smith has spent his career distilling complex & cross discipline problems down to their essentials—discovering and crafting paths to “next.”

As an experienced design leader & keen observer, he focuses on bringing out the best from the teams he supports: weaving through conversations, pulling the actual problems to the forefront—parsing in real time to help teams default to action—even if the action is not to build.
