With extensive experience in environmental research and education, Rob came to Green Corps seeking the tools to mobilize citizens to protect the environment. Rob graduated from Lawrence University with a Biology degree in 2006.  While in school he conducted research projects with the Milwaukee Public Museum, the Medical College of Wisconsin, and the Lawrence University Biology Department.

Following graduation, Rob worked with the Nature Conservancy and Audubon Society in Wisconsin on invasive species removal. 

After seeing first-hand the urgency of environmental problems, such as habitat destruction and species loss, Rob decided that more needed to be done to protect our last wild places. Currently, Rob is putting his classroom training to work on a campaign assignment with U.S. PIRG, the Federation of State PIRGs, working to protect fisheries.
