He started his employment with the "Loop Program", Bethlehem Steel’s management training program. Upon completion, Peter became an Industrial Engineer at Bethlehem’s Seattle, Washington, steel plant which consisted of three rolling mills, a reinforcing fabricating shop, and an industrial fastener manufacturing plant.

After a two year stint as Manager of Sales for Birmingham Steel’s Salmon Bay facility in Seattle (a producer of merchant bar and reinforcing steel), he began his own manufacturer’s representative business where he is now president.
