Robert is also a certified broadcast meteorologist of the American Meteorological Society.

He was also present during Lubbock's own inaugural Integrated Warning Team meeting. This passion for clear communication is the reason why he helped facilitate the local Integrated Warning Team for the New Orleans/Baton Rouge area, a collaboration between the National Weather Service, emergency management, and local media.

Robert avoids overly "sciencey" presentations and instead presents the weather in an easy-to-understand and relevant manner, so viewers can simply know what to expect and how to prepare for the day, especially during severe weather. He strives to build a grounded, personal relationship with them, so they can hear the weather forecast from a friend rather than “some guy on TV.” Robert feels meteorological knowledge is a must for weather broadcasters, but so is a clear message which the viewer can understand. Robert is driven by his passion to connect with the everyday viewer. Robert is currently a doctoral candidate of Texas Tech University’s College of Media and Communication, where he is a Helen Devitt Jones Fellowship recipient. Robert was also previously a broadcast meteorologist in Baton Rouge, La. Robert comes to us most recently from Lubbock, Texas where he served as a bilingual meteorologist for Fox34, Telemundo Nuevo Mexico and Telemundo Lubbock. Born in New Orleans' 9th Ward, Robert has been a broadcast meteorologist since 2013.
