Rob grew up in Montville NJ and 2x majored in Theatre and Psychology at Drew University. His path led him from Vienna, from an Opera intensive to working for the St. Augustinerkirche Chor, to NYC working for the Broadway companies of Hairspray & The Producers to Broadway Cares: Equity Fights Aids, to many countries in Asia, working with the 10th Anniversary World Tour of Rent as Company/Tour Manager. Now Rob resides in Seattle and considers Wing-It Productions a second home to him. Rob is both grateful and proud to spend every free weekend he has providing the musical accompaniment for Jet City Improv and Seattle's own Twisted Flicks (currently has 5 under his belt). You can also hear Rob sing at Benaroya Hall with the Seattle Symphony Chorale or this summer with RK Productions (founded by Rob & Wing It's own Kate Jaeger). Also, Rob is a highly acclaimed Private Voice Teacher in Seattle and is currently available to take new students. (Please email him at vocalife AT gmail.com for more information.)

- Favorite Quote:
- "For some reason we stopped having rock stars. We sit at home playing rock video games, and we have rock museums. Rock 'n' roll is a video game. Rock 'n' roll is a chance to look at Elvis' pants. It's everything but a lifestyle. It's fast food... It's over kids, you missed it, the death rattle is even done. That little kid from Almost Famous ought to jump off a bridge." -- Ron Bennington
