Hi, I’m Mason Pelt!
I’m an avid juggler, who used to do standup and work on indie films. But I have an addiction to eating, so, I now work for Push ROI in product and marketing (official Push ROI bio). I’m also a freelance writer with work appearing monthly in Hacker Noon and other outlets around the web. There is another Mason Pelt in Florida. I’m NOT HIM, it’s very important you know that.
My first career was in video & photo production, mostly creating news segments, corporate videos, and editorial spreads. I started, really young, but I did some cool things. My work has been seen on ABC, CBS, Dallas Morning News, and others. I remember feeling super honored as a teenager getting my National Press Photographers Association card.
It’s been some time since I aspired to be Carl Bernstein, Steven Spielberg or George Carlin. I’m still a freelance writer and my work has appeared in various publications, including TechCrunch, Venture Beat, SiliconANGLE, Hacker Noon and Splice Today. I’ve committed random acts one could generously call “journalism”. I still occasionally get to work as a producer, photographer or interviewer. And while my career isn’t currently compatible with a comedy club stage, I hope I’ll be back.
