College and University Programming

Bob knows the struggles, the pain, the failures and the ultimate success of the post-secondary life. He spent nine and half years pursuing higher education before finally emerging with an M.S. in Industrial Organizational Psychology. He is also very well-aware of what awaits graduates in the “real world” having succeeded and failed as a corporate consultant, an entrepreneur, a musician and a public servant.

It is the breadth and depth of this experience that deeply resonates with students and creates an impact they can carry forth into their life’s journey.
