Having worked on a number of projects over the years, I've seen a wide range of management styles and levels of success. Rob is one of the best project managers I've ever worked with. He is able to effectively manage multiple responsibilities, identify those areas where the team needs support and develop helpful mechanisms to aid team success. All that, and he's a pleasure to work for. In a nutshell, he's the kind of guy you want to impress.

Wade Bradt - Senior Instructional Designer, Boeing

I collaborated with Rob on multiple K-12 STEM teacher professional development programs and projects over several years and always valued his advice, experienced approaches, and insights. I especially appreciated his wisdom with respect to what made the most sense for our audiences and his ability to prioritize their needs to guide our work. I'm proud to have worked alongside Rob and confidently recommend him for any leadership or development role related to instructional design, K-12 education, professional training, or curriculum development.

Adam Santone - Data Enablement Lead, Revenue Enablement, ZoomInfo

I thought I knew what it meant to lead an ID project or to be organized and prepared - until I was able to learn how Rob does it! While his title might have been Instructional Design Lead, he was really the project lead; he was actually the project lead that completely saved a huge project for the state. His planning of training, design specifications, design and development guides, design templates, review procedures, and leadership in training over 100 non-designers to design 300+ online tutorials was very impressive. Additionally, he really is a nice guy- no matter what he wants to believe!

I’ve had the privilege of working with Rob for many years, and his attention to detail, technical expertise, and dedication to quality have been invaluable to our team. He has always demonstrated a willingness to take on new challenges and to collaborate across multiple projects, teams, and activities simultaneously. Rob approaches every challenge with thoughtfulness and persistence, consistently delivering high-quality instructional design and innovative solutions.

Rabieh Razzouk - Director, Learning Systems Institute, FSU

Working with Rob on the student tutorials project was truly a standout experience in my career. He brought an exceptional level of organization to our work that made the entire process run smoothly. His approach to structuring the development and review stages was both practical and effective—so much so that I continue to use many of his techniques in my current projects. What impressed me most was how he standardized our workflows without sacrificing creativity or quality. It was the most well-managed eLearning development I've been part of, and his methods have had a lasting impact on my professional practice.

Whitney Lawrence - Freelance Instructional Designer

I worked under Rob's supervision at LSI for two years. I learned from him not only how we put instructional design and UX principles into practice but also the leadership and project management skills he demonstrated every day with his team. As a leader, Rob set up the foundation, structure, and guidelines that were clear and effective. He provided detailed feedback for every course we built, and the feedback was always meaningful and added value to the products. I would recommend anyone to work with Rob or to trust him to deliver the best learning solutions.

Anchalee Ngampornchai - Associate Director for Assessment and Articulation, School of Information, FSU

I had the privilege of working with Rob for nine years, and during that time, I learned so much from his leadership, technical expertise, and thoughtful approach to e-learning development. He was always incredibly supportive of our team—whenever I ran into challenges with Storyline or other tools, he was the first to offer help and walk me through solutions. His depth of knowledge in tools like Storyline, Camtasia, and even JavaScript was impressive, and he was always generous in sharing what he knew to help others grow. What stood out the most was his unwavering focus on students. He consistently emphasized accessibility, clarity, and how our work could best support student learning. No matter how complex a project was, he kept our goals student-centered. On top of that, he’s just a kind, easygoing person who made collaboration smooth and enjoyable. I feel truly fortunate to have worked alongside him and continue to carry forward the values and skills I gained through our work together.

Qingfu Wang - Senior Instructional Designer, Learning Systems Institute, FSU

I have worked with Rob for over seven years and have found him to be a leader with infinite patience and a locked-in, high-level attention to detail. He has successfully marshalled our small group of Instructional Designers through several administrative and technical changes, and, with his leadership, we always overcome. I enjoy being under his tutelage; I have learned a lot from him.

Jay Colle - Instructional Designer, Learning Systems Institute, FSU

Robert was one of the most competent and creative managers I've had. He has the ability to jump in at any level of the instructional development process, work as fast as any member of his staff, and he was excellent at prioritizing all the components of a colossal project and keep everyone on-task with an agile management style. Every week over the course of the five months I was there, Robert kept presenting us with data in Sharepoint to show where we met our requirements to stay on target and where we fell behind. His project was one of the largest I've been a part of.

Colin Dwyer - Product Development Coordinator at Center for Information Management & Education Services, FSU

I have had many great bosses over the years, but Rob has been the one from whom I've learned the most. He is an expert in the field, and a tireless practitioner. When I had a question or was stuck (and that was fairly often), he was there immediately to teach me what to do. My gratitude to Rob, as well as my admiration, is epic.

His genuine appreciation - even for the smallest contributions - was incredibly motivating and inspired our team to aim higher.
