He instantly builds a rapport with pretty much anyone.

This instant connection is especially evident with his audiences…regardless of age, race, religion, gender or socioeconomics.  Why? Because at his core, Bobby is a storyteller who inherently believes we are all the same. Along with his special gift of being able to recognize the humor in life’s day-to-day situations, his observations of people and the craziness of life’s journey, he effortlessly elicits laughter. His comedic (often physical) characterizations, and truthful translations of the human condition, are by far, what make his brand of humor, and him, so unique.

He is the guy you want as a big brother, the man you want your daughter to meet, the person you want as your best friend. He’s the guy who left a lucrative job to follow his dream; the guy who loves his dog, is proud of his wife’s achievements, and is trying to raise, decent, kind, loving human beings – all the while making the rest of us laugh. 

Bobby is a husband and father. He and Jill have been married for 28 years (to each other!). He loves his “Girls.” His oldest daughter keeps him on his toes, frequently in need of “self-editing” and Bobby’s wit & wisdom.  His second daughter was born with special needs.  She is the light, the heart, and soul of his universe. Through her he has learned the importance of tolerance, patience and above all, Love!
