I want to take a moment to celebrate an extraordinary human being and our fearless leader, Rob on his birthday.
Rob is a rare example of what it means to live with integrity, consistency, and heart. He doesn’t just speak about values—he embodies them. Every day, he shows up with honesty, loyalty, and an unwavering commitment to the work of recovery and community building. It is an absolute privilege to work alongside him and to see firsthand the impact of his vision and leadership.
I’ve had the honor of watching Rob’s journey from early sobriety to becoming a steady, generous, and inspiring force in the recovery community. His ability to connect with people, to listen deeply, and to lead with both compassion and strength sets him apart in ways that can’t be overstated. What makes Rob’s story even more remarkable is how he has translated his lived experience into meaningful, tangible change for others.
Through The Courage Center, Rob has not only created a space of hope, resilience, and possibility—he has built a meaningful team of both professionals in recovery and affected others, who bring their own lived experience to the work. He has brought together a broad spectrum of personalities, all united by the same core values, goals, and vision. That diversity of perspective combined with shared purpose has created something truly special: a beautiful team that reflects the power of recovery and community at its best. I feel a deep sense of pride to be part of what Rob has built and to watch it continue to grow under his leadership.
Rob, you are an extraordinary human being. The world is better because you are in it, and because you give so thoughtfully and selflessly to the people around you. Your leadership inspires, your compassion uplifts, and your example reminds us all what it truly means to walk with courage.
Wishing you the happiest of birthdays today, and many more years of health, joy, and continued impact.
