In addition to helming Snodgrass Partners’ business development efforts, he serves as the Principal Advisor at Advisory 110, an independent consultancy.

Peter previously served as Executive Director of 24 Foundation in support of cancer survivorship and navigation programs. Before leading the foundation, Peter served as Senior Director of Sports Alliances at BDA from his offices in Charlotte, NC and New York, NY. In this role, he led business, marketing, and merchandise strategies to drive sales and revenue for sports leagues, teams, and sponsors.
