Background: Growing up in small town outside of Gary, Indiana, Robert's plans to enlist in the Navy changed when he received the Eli Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship, a full scholarship to an collage in Indiana.

He earned a BSBA in Finance and MS in International Commerce & Policy from Valparaiso before getting into politics. Along the way, Robert became a believer in the power of appearance and a menswear enthusiast. These days, he works on Capital Hill and moonlights as a custom clothier, helping DC's most influencer men look the part.

Expertise: A former menswear boutique owner and Certified Custom Clothier, Robert is an expert in men's tailoring and formalwear. He has extensive experience evaluating and reviewing digital-first direct-to-consumer apparel and accessory brands.

Robert is also a TedX speaker, cyclist and power lifter, and he might just be the best dressed man on Capital Hill.
