Originally from Buffalo, New York, Donnie Peters relocated to New Hampshire with his family prior to high school before attending Barton College in North Carolina to both study and play soccer. After a year and a half, Donnie transferred to Elon University where he pursued a degree in physics and mathematics. It was during his time at Elon that Donnie discovered his passion for poker.
During his last semester at Elon, Donnie was offered a job with PokerNews to work at the 2008 World Series of Poker. He took the opportunity after graduating and continued to work with PokerNews for the following year and a half before joining the team full-time in January 2010.
