Robert’s motivation for success was inspired by the love of his family.
His dear mother, Maria though a young widow and mother of three,
helped instill in Robert a sense of caring and perseverance. In
addition, the love of his brother, Henry helped set the foundation for his
work with the youth. And above all, his dedication to his lovely
daughters, Melissa and Natalie will always energize him to strive to work
for the future of our community.
Since his arrival on the Treasure Coast, he has pursued his lifelong
traditions - hard work, music, cultural identity and community
involvement. Although he has worked for FedEx for 20 years, he has
pursued other projects.
Robert was elected by the St. Lucie County Commissioners to sit on the
Board of the St. Lucie County Cultural Affairs Council. He also works
with other organizations and sits on the Fort Pierce Jazz and Blues
Society Mardi Gras and Zora Fest committees.
Driven by his passion for music and his desire to bring joy to his
community, Robert

in the Treasure Coast. He was the emcee, host and musical director of
two radio shows: Latin Express on 101.3 Coast FM and Salsa Express on
WIRA 1400 AM. Robert also enjoys his involvement with new talent as a
mentor in their entry process in the music industry.

Affairs, Inc, he successfully produced the Annual San Juan Festival and
Business Expo. With the attendance at these events at approximately
4,000, expectations are high for other events. As president of the

youth, has earned this organization the President’s Award from Indian
