Supporting animals in need has always been important to Robert. He grew up in a family that always had rescue dogs in the house. After he adopted his first dog from a local animal shelter, the experience moved him to the point of becoming a regular volunteer where he helped walk and socialize dogs, eventually becoming a volunteer dog adoption counselor. In March of 2022, his family adopted their current dog, a 12-week-old cockapoo, who was rescued from a puppy mill by AAWL and one of their rescue partners.

In his spare time, Robert is a youth softball coach and enjoys creating memories with his wife Alison, daughters Emily and Hannah, and their beloved dog, Charlie.
