Young Professionals Luncheon October

Pete Dunlap, founder of Digital Detangler, has spent the last decade immersed in the worlds of education and technology. Armed with a Bachelors in Physics and Masters in Education, Pete taught internationally (UK, USVI, Ecuador). Returning to the States, he became a software engineer (education, healthcare, the gig economy). Concerned about the distractions he and his coworkers were facing, he started helping organizations improve employee engagement through transformed digital environments. He's had the privilege of speaking at corporations (United Way, Vaco, United Methodist Church, 40AU) and universities (Vanderbilt, Belmont, Wake Forest). He was named The Moth’s Nashville StorySlam Champion for his storytelling ability. He's been featured in local media and the podcasts. As the creator of ScrollStopper (a Chrome extension) and award-winning author (Independent Press Award 2019, Next Generation Indie Book Award 2019) of Digital Detangler: A Guide to Mindful Technology Use, Pete has established himself as a leading voice in the movement for more humane technology.
