Rob has been playing drums since he was 8 years old and while he considers himself more of a Funk/Jazz influenced drummer, he has played everything from Blues to Folk.

He is the former drummer of the band Ways to Fall, an Alternative Acoustic Folk-Rock band from New Hampshire.

Rob is somewhat of an ambidextrous drummer. He's right handed, but due to some issues with his right leg, he often chooses to either play left handed or a combination of right handed/left footed.

In 2004 founded and until 2009 ran a disabled drummer resource of his own called "Handidrummed". While putting together the website, Rob became friends with Can-Do-Muso Founder Andrew Hewitt. Andrew became Handidrummed's first profiled drummer and was a big part in its success.
