Peter has lived in Hawaii, Boston, Alaska, Vancouver Canada and now Seattle in pursuit of living life to the fullest.  His calm demeanor hides a rather excitable, wag-the-tail-vigourously kind of energy that has led Peter through all sorts of adventures; mountain bike racing and riding in Vancouver - the hotbed of extreme ‘north shore’ riding, month long mountain climbing trips with NOLS in the Cascades and Olympics, starting an engineering consulting firm a decade ago that now works closely with some of the largest corporations in the world, snow boarding in the fluffiest powder possible, and working on his photography and travel writing web site.

Peter loves to travel, his globetrotting trips including Japan, China, Europe, Russia and New York City, just to prime the list.  Primal Quest 2008 marks a focal point where Peter can gather and expand his skills, determination and joy of living and moving to celebrate life to the fullest.
