Pete grew up outside of Wilmington, Delaware before attending Virginia Tech to study Mechanical Engineering. Always a huge sports fan, Pete fell in love with Hokies athletics after becoming a student. The football team was front and center over his years at Tech, highlighted by an ACC Championship in 2004, cementing his Hokies obsession.

These days, Pete is happily married and has settled down in South Jersey. He takes every opportunity to travel, hike, hit a brewery, and attend Hokies games. He also is a member of his local Rotary Club and co-hosts the Two Deep podcast with his long-time bud, Robbie.
