Peter's expertise is fitting and aligning the newest prosthetic Bionic technology and running prosthesis. These skills allow each solider and patient to achieve their individual goals of returning to an active life.
Peter lives in Laguna Beach, California and is extremely grateful for his family and friends.
Through their various competitions, Peter and Sarah have experienced each other's emotional highs and lows and are prepared for the challenges that lie ahead.
