Early life

Pesi was born on November 3, 1980 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at Magee-Women's hospital. He grew up as an only child in the Monongahela Valley with an affinity for sports and entertainment. He attended Geibel Catholic Junior-Senior High School in Connellsville before transferring to Charleroi High School, where he graduated in 1999.[2] He graduated from Point Park University, Conservatory of Performing Arts as a theater major with a concentration in acting.

In 2013, Pesi was diagnosed with Acromegaly while filming 42.[3] Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa removed his tumor, and Pesi credits "Dr. Q" with allowing "me the opportunity to better my health."[4] Pesi refers to this experience as "the greatest gift I've had,"[5] with a better appreciation of his life.
