Pete

Pete is a native of Berks County and grew up in the Gouglersville area.  He attended East Stroudsburg University and eventually Penn State for his graduate work in hospitality management.  Pete spent 25 plus years managing high end restaurants and resorts.  During COVID he found a new career within the hearing field. He has been working with patients since 2021 and wishes he had made the move much sooner as he enjoys helping others to hear again.

Pete has been wearing hearing devices for since 2014 due to a genetic issue.  He understands what others with a hearing loss experience.  He has seen (and heard) the changes to hearing aids over the years and is excited for the ever-changing technology coming down the road. Because Pete is dependent on hearing aids, he brings a fresh perspective first-hand on what hearing aid processing truly can do.

Pete is an avid fly fisher and bowler.  He follows all Penn State sports.  He is excited to be back in the area for the cheesesteaks and Goods potato chips.  He enjoys making others laugh and hearing all about their stories.

Excited to be a part of the team!
