ABOUT PETE

Early on

In high school, Pete was both the class nerd and class clown. He received his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from M.I.T. where his classmates voted him most likely to appear in a mug shot wearing a pocket protector. Pete was a post-doctoral researcher at IBM, NASA, and the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule in Zurich, Switzerland where he learned important skills like how to pronounce Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule. He started doing stand-up comedy and researching the application of humor to improve technical education, innovation, and communication during his three decade stint on the faculty of the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Current

I have been teaching myself filmmaking for the past four and a half years and I’m still learning every day. I am building my business as a freelance filmmaker, as well as working on my own photo shoots.
