Peter has composed additional music for major TV series such as Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars: The Bad Batch (Disney+), Titans, Doom Patrol (HBOmax), and Jane the Virgin (the CW). As a music editor, he has won a Daytime Emmy for the final season of Clone Wars, and has also music-edited HBO's doc series Catch & Kill, and Netflix's anime Trese.

Graduated from the University of Southern California's acclaimed screen scoring program as a BAFTA LA scholarship recipient, Peter was mentored by distinguished composers such as Alan Silvestri (Back to the Future, Forrest Gump) and Laura Karpman (Lovecraft Country).
