With 15 years of music industry experience, Peter's career began as a DJ at KOTO FM in Telluride, Colorado in 1995. He went on to study music and fine art at the University of Colorado at Boulder, while working as a concert producer for the university. After many late nights (and early mornings) on terrestrial radio, he moved to San Francisco to pursue a career in Internet radio.
Since 2000, he has worked for many of the top online music companies such as CBS, CNET, MP3.com, Last.fm and Rhapsody as an editor, producer, interview host and label relations manager. He has developed many relationships with record labels and PR companies to acquire exclusive content. He has hosted and produced video interviews with top artists such as Phoenix, The Decemberists, and Jakob Dylan. He has also covered major festivals and conferences as a editor and photographer. When he's not at his day job or producing his own music, you can find him outdoors hiking, biking or on the disc golf course.
