Eric Peterson - Region 4
With a solid background in customer service, sales, and building strategic partnerships, Eric Peterson joins WAA as a regional corporate development specialist for Region 4.

His career includes roles within the U.S. Army, where he handled complex infantry operations and managed multimillion-dollar logistical missions. He is not only a veteran himself, but he has also actively participated in veteran advocacy, focusing on suicide prevention initiatives through a local nonprofit organization. Josh is pursuing his MBA with a concentration in Strategic Technology and Innovation Management, further highlighting his commitment to professional growth.
"This mission is deeply personal to me as I have lived the experience of service," Josh remarked. He is excited to continue helping his fellow veterans and support their families through the vital work of Wreaths Across America.
