He is a graduate of Duluth High School before moving on to play football as an invited member of the West Georgia Football team in 2004. Eventually, he enrolled at Georgia State University to study Education. Through his college experience he was introduced to Georgia Tech Men's Lacrosse Coach Ken Lovic. After graduating he began teaching at North Springs High School in Fulton County where he started the boys lacrosse programs when GHSA sanctioned the sport. After 2 years he returned to Gwinnett County to continue teaching and coaching with the hopes of being able to coach lacrosse again in Gwinnett. He spent the next 4 years coaching football at Central Gwinnett and Collins Hill HS, while trying to help get Lacrosse approved in Gwinnett. Finally, during the last of days of school in 2008 he was asked if he wanted to be the coach for Collins Hill Lacrosse Program by starting both a boys and girls program. Coach Pearre jumped at the opportunity to get back into the sport and eventually gave up coaching football to focus he time and energy on Lacrosse. After 3 years of coaching both programs including 2 years making the playoffs on both the girls and boys side he recently has turned the boys' program over to his assistant coach to focus on the girls program for
