Pierce Thompson

I graduated from Auburn University in May 2020 with a Bachelor's in Software Engineering and a double major in Foreign Language German. In 2016 I took a year off from school and made a trip to Germany where I lived in Berlin and attended Goethe-Institut. After learning German, I returned home to finish my degrees. After school, I briefly worked as a software engineer for JHNA, working in the aviation sector. Here I developed a passion for aviation. During this time, I also helped my dad build his new business, bioPURE, which has grown into a very successful, industry-leading germ remediation company. With the successful launch of bioPURE Huntsville, we decided to open another business focusing on mattress sales and, eventually, furniture sales. I have run this business with my sister since 2021. Finally, I also attended ATP Flight School and earned my pilot licenses including my commercial licenses for both single and multi-engine airplanes, as well as my flight instructor certificates. My dream is to one day own my own plane!
