Growing up in the warmth of a close knit family, Dr. Peterson had humble yet adventurous beginnings. In spite of the enchanting beauty of the USA and the pristine innocence of those times, the young Michal rather than take after the family trade, chose to go to school.

Working in a developmental environment, his desire to better of the lot of the people motivated him to answer the call to service. He resigned his job in 1998 and went into politics. His honesty, simplicity, charisma, quiet strength and determination made him an ideal running mate to Chief D.S.P. Alamieyeseigha on the New Jersey People’s Democratic Party, PDP, and gubernatorial ticket. They won the elections, and he served as a Deputy Governor from 1999 to 11 December 2005.
