Where do you go after graduating with a commerce degree? The big 4 account firms? Maybe a large bank? Well for Peter it went a whole other direction - video editing. Peter decided to pursue his passion and he said it is one of the best decisions he has made in his life. We discuss:

  • How Peter overcame his height insecurity
  • Peter's metaphor for how to win the game of life in his eyes
  • "Do what you love, and you'll never work again."
  • Finding work that aligns with your morals and values
  • Learning how to edit content tailored for social media
  • "Find work that feels like play"
  • What Peter loves about Ultrafade by Rich's team
  • Being the only sibling not pursuing a STEM degree
  • How The Dodgeball Dudes started and what skills it taught
  • The experience of meeting fans in Malaysia
  • What it’s like working for Kerwin Rae and Vinh Giang
