Peter Askew
Board Director
Owner, Modern Games
Peter has had the immense benefit of a diverse set of experiences in life, though he has always been entrepreneurial at heart. He arrived in Central Oregon in 2008 while still serving in the Marine Corps. In the Marines he was focused in operations and personnel management. He studied business at OSU Cascades, and after graduation, joined a local startup to redefine allergen safe snacks. The company grew into a national brand being offered all over the county and Peter was responsible for procurement fulfillment and heavily involved with operations.
Post pandemic, Peter realigned his life to do things he was passionate about. He exited his position and purchased another local business, Modern Games, that has allowed him to spend more time with his family and volunteering in the community.
