Along with radio, Rob has a background in Television and as a voiceover artist. Rob's passion is to engage his Christian faith with issues of justice in today's world, including, but not limited to, standing up for those on death row, asylum seekers, orphans, prisoners, the poor & homeless, and how environmental change affects the most marginal people. In 2022, Rob completed a post-graduate Professional Supervision diploma from the University of Divinity.
