He grew up swimming in Barton Springs in Austin, eating his grandmother’s traditional Tejano cuisine in New Braunfels, and playing golf in Lufkin.

When he’s not working in real estate or teaching undergraduates, Robert is eating his way across Austin, playing the drums, wrestling with his dog, or is out on the golf course pursuing his passion of striking a little white ball across the landscape. Robert holds master degrees in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning from The University of California, Berkeley, and in City Planning from The Ohio State University.
