I'm Pete and I'm the Digital Managing Editor at Townsquare Media Tri-Cities. I got a job here doing odds and ends at the station in 2012 after graduating from Tri-Tech Skills Center and I've been here ever since. I've lived in all of the "big three" Tri-Cities after moving here in 2003, so I consider myself a native of our community. I'm a big fan of metal & 80's pop and I also really love 80's movies. My movie collection is constantly growing to the point where my wife looks my way when there's a package at our door. My favorite directors are Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino. My wife and I have two beautiful little girls together, both of whom are named after "sports things." We all enjoy animation from Disney movies and shows to Rick & Morty and South Park.
