Peter King Board Vice-chair

Peter King and his family moved to Bend in 2005 after spending 25+ years working as a software engineer for various high tech companies in the Silicon Valley, including NeXT Computer, Sun Microsystems, Silicon Graphics, and most recently Openwave, Inc. as Director of Technology. He attended Cate School in Carpinteria, CA (where he currently serves on the board) and Stanford University. He is a former trustee of the Sea Crest School in Half Moon Bay, CA.

Peter was raised in a family of educators heralding back to his grandmother in a one-room schoolhouse on the Flathead Indian Reservation during the Great Depression. His father and uncle were professors, his aunt a superintendant, his uncle and brother principals, his mother, sister, four cousins and niece teachers. Needless to say, if he didn't learn the value of education by osmosis, it was taught to him.
