He was appointed Executive Chef onboard the SS Norway at age 30. After a few years he found a new challenge with the startup for both Star Cruises in Singapore and later Disney Cruise Line in Florida. Opening the Aventura Palace in Cancun followed before he accepted a position at the Opryland Resort in Nashville. During his professional career Chef Gebauer has earned many memberships and awards.

When he finds time, Peter is an avid soccer fan, enjoys swimming with his daughter Anna Claudia, practices Tae Kwon Do with son Daniel - and relishes family time.
