As a junior, Peterson was a four-time state champion curler, and won U.S. national junior championships in 2009 and 2010. In 2009, Peterson played third on her junior rink, skipped by Alexandra Carlson. After winning the U.S. junior title, the team would represent the United States at the 2009 World Junior Curling Championships. The team finished the round robin with a 4-5 record, finishing 5th. In 2010, the Carlson rink won another U.S. junior title, sending the team to the 2010 World Junior Curling Championships. At the 2010 World Juniors, the team finished the round robin in tie for third place with a 6-3 record. The team won their first playoff match against Switzerland's Manuela Siegrist, before losing in the semi-final to Sweden's Anna Hasselborg. That demoted the team to the bronze medal game where they defeated Switzerland again to finish third overall.

After her junior career ended in 2010, Peterson joined the Allison Pottinger rink at lead position. In their first year together, the team lost in the final of the 2011 United States Women's Curling Championship to Patti Lank. The following season, they avenged this loss by beating Cassandra Johnson's rink to win the 2012 United States Women's Curling Championship. This sent the Pottinger team to the 2012 Ford World Women's Curling Championship to represent the U.S. The team finished the round robin at the 2012 Worlds in a tie with Canada's Heather Nedohin for fourth place and a 7-4 record. However, Canada beat the team in the tie-breaker, forcing the U.S. to settle for 5th. The next season, the team won a bronze medal at the 2013 United States Women's Curling Championship. The team found more success in the 2013-14 season. They won one World Curling Tour event over the season, the 2013 Kamloops Crown of Curling. Their success on the World Curling Tour gave them enough points to qualify for the 2014 Ford World Women's Curling Championship, following news rules made by the United States Curling Association which based World Championship qualifying on Order of Merit points rather than winning the U.S. Championship. As for the U.S. Championship that season, the team ended up losing in the final of the 2014 United States Women's Curling Championship to Nina Spatola.
