Peppler is a navigator for J-Wave's Tokio Hot 100 and the host of Tokyo Eye 2020.^[2]

Peppler was born to a German-American father and a Japanese mother in Seibo Hospital. There isn't any Japanese in his name due to the request of his mother, who wanted to name her son Chris. Through his grandmother, he is a descendant of Akechi Mitsuhide.

After graduating from St. Mary International School, he moved to California. He later moved back to Japan to begin his DJ career. Shortly after in 2006, he met and married fellow DJ Yukari Kimishima.

He is also fluent in French as his third language.
