With a bachelor's degree in Sound Engineering from Columbia College, Chicago, and having run sound and lighting for over 600 live shows, Rob combines technical prowess with art and passion to push the edge of creative design in the company. A lifelong musician with a recording studio in his house, Rob believes that we really can affect people's lives by engaging them emotionally through state-of-the-art music and cinema systems. He started the company with that premise and for eight years used his own house to demonstrate what is possible with our integrated systems.
