Peter McDermott, Site Creator

Currently attending The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, I am a first-year Pre-Major in Electronic Media and Journalism. I am taking my first communications course this year and had a wonderful experience working for The Daily Beacon. I now work for WUTK 90.3FM as an news anchor and assignment editor. I am ultimately seeking a career as a television news anchor or reporter, but am also exploring the freelance production venues as well.

My entrepreneurship extends into a locally-licensed business, CrucialSolutions.com which focused on the deployment of on-site technology solutions to residents and small business owners in Germantown and Collierville. I operate all aspects of the business from administration to marketing and complete all of the service calls myself. I first started the business in Atlanta as Home Computing Solutions and upon turning eighteen decided to license the company here in Germantown to become completely legitimate.

I have lived in five states and moved numerous times due to my father's career with the United States Postal Service. Currently I reside in Germantown, Tennessee and have so for the past year. I moved to Tennessee from a northern suburb of Atlanta, Georgia where I lived for three years. Before moving there I lived in Quechee, Vermont for nine months, and Sewickley, Pennsylvania for a long time before that.

I am an aggressive self-starter that is always interested in seeking the most efficient way to complete tasks. There is never a challenge I am not willing to undertake, and I am always seeking new opportunities. My skills range from multimedia production, to customer service to computer network administration.
