When Rob is not in the office, he enjoys spending his time with his wife and two kids, competing in triathlons and other endurance events, bowhunting, and cheering on the Gonzaga Bulldogs and his favorite football and baseball teams. On Sundays, you can find Rob and his family at Summit Church on the South Hill and watching football in their family sports den.
