![]() Hometown: Staten Island, NY
Education: Staten Island Technical High School; The University of Scranton (Bachelor of Arts in English and History); Jones International University (Master of Education in Higher Education Leadership and Administration) After instructing over 1100 students behind the wheel (and many more in the classroom) since 2016, Rob still regularly hears the question, “How did you become a Driving Instructor?”. For almost a decade, Rob served in student development roles at colleges across the country, gaining specialized training and experience in working with students of all learning profiles, including those with learning differences, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It was at a university in Colorado that he met the most awesome woman in the world, his wife, Kristen. As year two out west came to a close, Rob and Kristen decided to move to Cleveland, where Kristen had spent most of her life. Rob, meanwhile, had no idea what he was getting himself into! Shortly after settling in on the East Side and taking a position in student development at a local college, Rob looked for a part time gig in the hopes of saving to buy a home. He wanted a way to continue working with students, to continue helping people to help themselves in impactful ways. For the next three and a half years, Rob did just that, working with a local driving school and learning the ins and outs of driving instruction from professionals who truly cared about the student experience and making greater Cleveland's roads safer. Less than a year into that time, Rob made the decision to leave his student development career to focus on developing teen and adult students both behind the wheel and in the classroom – a career that gives him incredible joy and a great sense of purpose. Rob loves working with his students and partnering with them to achieve both safety and success every time they get behind the wheel. Their success is his success!

![]() Hometown: Mayfield Heights, OH
Education: Mayfield High School; Ashland University (Bachelor of Arts in Religion); Bowling Green State University (Master of Arts in College Student Personnel) Kristen was born and raised in Mayfield Heights and is happy to have settled in the greater Cleveland area with her husband, Rob. The longer she lives here, the more she comes to appreciate all that Cleveland has to offer. She and Rob are both excited to be a bigger part of the local community by bringing safe and reliable driver training to the east-side community. Kristen has hopped around in different fields -- from majoring in Religious Studies at Ashland University to getting my Masters in College Student Personnel at Bowling Green State University and spending four years working in higher education and student affairs to finally settling in the non-profit sector. She has been fortunate to serve the families at the Ronald McDonald House of Cleveland since November 2014. Over the past three years, Kristen has watched Rob become more and more excited and passionate about driver education and particularly about the students he teaches. She is beyond thrilled to join him in this passion and to use their combined strengths to have a positive impact on the greater Cleveland community through their school.
