About

Ever since Pete was a young child, he discovered he has a strong passion for storytelling and drawing…be it the ketchup doodles on his dinner plate or a children’s book about a multi-armed mom, concocting narrative has been his gumption. Pete graduated from Rhode Island School of Design as an illustration major, and since then, he has written and illustrated traditional humorous greeting cards for Hallmark, as well as digital animated Ecards.  He has illustrated numerous children’s books, contributed to Highlights Magazine for Children, created an original comic strip for Disney’s Family Fun Magazine, been the lead artist and animator for an award-winning podcast series, 7 Minute Stories, and a professor at the Cleveland Institute of Art.  Pete is always looking to find a story worth telling by using his humorous illustrations, motion graphic animation, or video editing skills to help find the deeper meaning, the humorous situation or the heartfelt moment in any story. 

 

We all have a story to tell.  Pete’s motion graphic essays video edits, or humorous illustrations are a great way to have your stories come to life.
