Peter “Petrus Pistor” Baker II: Building a Quiet Revolution in Deaf Vlogging

Peter Baker II—known online as Petrus Pistor—is a community builder with a maker's mindset. Based in Riverside County, California, he splits his days between on-the-ground hustle and a bigger mission: creating a high-standard home for Deaf vloggers to grow, collaborate, and be seen. What started as a few livestream experiments has evolved into a blueprint for a modern, Deaf-led creator ecosystem—clear rules, strong host standards, captioned content, and a culture that rewards care as much as clout. Peter's idea is simple and stubborn: quality over chaos. He's gathering Deaf creators who want structure—hosts who show up prepared, panels that stay on topic, and videos that are always accessible (captioned and voiced when it helps the audience). He's not chasing drama; he's building repeatable systems so more Deaf storytellers can shine without burning out.
