Robert’s devotion to martial arts was fueled by his hunger for knowledge in all martial arts styles & disciplines. This passion led him to broaden his training and become proficient in multiple martial arts disciplines and to compete and excel in various international martial arts competitions.

​

Although Robert had a deep passion for martial arts, he never forgot his childhood dreams of film making. After graduating from Loyola High School in Los Angeles, he received an academic scholarship to attend Loyola Marymount University (LMU), where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Studio Arts and Communication Studies, while minoring in Animation and Business Marketing. This is where Robert trained under Dan McLaughlin and made his first hand drawn animated senior thesis film titled “The Dive of Life”. After graduating from LMU, Robert dabbled in the commercial world as a Junior Art Director at Envision Group, but ultimately his love for martial arts and film came calling and led him to become a stunt performer.
