About Me


Hi, I'm Rob. I go to school, work, and write music. I'm first an audio production major and second a web designer in my career life. Some past and current clients include --
Dallas Pughe, Nike, Habitat for Humanity, Hewlett-Packard, California State Department, CW 5, Qualcomm, Red Bull, The zoological society.. just to name a few. Also I'm working on a new clothing company releasing summer 2008, check it out here . I like to surf, jam, shoot fireworks, and occasionally party, as long as I'm with good homies. Good friends, indeed, are few and far between, and I've been less than good at keeping in touch, which is mainly why I am here. Life's reasons have sent me in a thousand directions, I can only imagine what will happen next.

"The moulding of the young minds of future generations will depend upon these teachers, for theirs is a great responsibility; and we would like to remind them that they should take to heart this obligation and act accordingly. Education is a means of sharpening the mind of man both spiritually and intellectually. It is a two edged sword that can be used either for the progress of mankind or for its destruction.

“Education develops the intellect; and the intellect distinguishes man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of his life. The key for the betterment and completeness of modern living is education. But, ' Man cannot live by bread alone '. Man, after all, is also composed of intellect and soul. Therefore, education in general, and higher education in particular, must aim to provide, beyond the physical, food for the intellect and soul. That education which ignores man's intrinsic nature, and neglects his intellect and reasoning power can not be considered true education.”-- H.I.M.
