Pete Reynolds

Co-Founder

Pete ReynoldsPete’s focus has been to implement Learn Deep’s ecosystem approach to driving change in K-12 education, building a network of educators and partners that bring diverse experience and expertise and creating opportunities where collaborative efforts can offer rich learning experiences for students. 

Prior to founding Learn Deep, Pete spent 25 years managing cross-functional teams in the development and implementation of new technologies for new and rapidly growing companies. That brought with it a need for immersion in the methodologies of Design Thinking, Agile Software Development, User Experience Design, and the Lean Business Canvas — tools and processes designed to foster the rapid understanding of a problem from the customer’s perspective and iterate quickly to arrive at a sustainable solution.

Pete holds Masters Degrees in Architecture and Urban Planning from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and a BS in Urban and Regional Studies from Cornell University.
