He graduated from Haslett High School in 1988 and received a Bachelor of Applied Science in Accounting from Davenport University.  Rob met his wife Deana in Tucson, Arizona and they were married on March 12, 1999, “almost” 25 years. After the wedding, Rob and Deana lived in Oklahoma where Rob became the father to his beloved son, Jared.  Rob and his family moved back to Michigan in 2003 where he enjoyed hiking, going to the lake, hunting, playing guitar and being a member of the Parma Outdoor Club. He spent most of his career in Professional Services for various software companies. His last being BS&A Software where he was the Director of Implementation and Training. Rob loved his teammates and especially loved mentoring those just starting their careers. Through his work he was able to travel across the United States, Central America and Great Britain.  Rob was baptized as a baby.
