Pete Berryman

Pete grew up in Birmingham, Alabama, and is the son of Canadian parents. His dad, Tim, played football for the University of Ottawa and for seven years in the CFL, and his mom, Cynthia, played volleyball at Queen's University. Due to his Canadian heritage (and his dad’s influence), Pete is a lifelong Toronto Blue Jays fan.

While baseball is his favorite sport, Pete’s athletic career led him to walk on to Auburn University’s football team in 2016 as a wide receiver. In 2018, after graduating from Auburn with a degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering, he extended his football career for a season with the Edmonton Eskimos, the same team who drafted his dad first overall in 1976.

Currently, Pete lives with his wife, Brooke, in Raleigh, North Carolina. He is a software developer and is working towards his M.S. in Analytics from Georgia Tech. While he enjoys conducting baseball analytics projects, the quote from Billy Beane in Moneyball resonates with him: “How can you not be romantic about baseball?”
