Rob is the founder and creator of VeePod – a groundbreaking podcast studio system that transforms any suitable space into a dynamic, real-time production environment. Powered by immersive visuals and automated editing, VeePod reimagines the video podcast studio, adding rich storytelling layers while keeping the authentic, unscripted feel that listeners love.

With over 20 years in big tech marketing at global leaders like Microsoft, Salesforce, and Epson, Rob built a reputation for pushing the boundaries of storytelling and audience engagement. During the pandemic, he spotted a seismic shift: gaming, film, and broadcast technologies were converging – and few were exploring what that meant for the future of media.

Rob went all in, investing 8,000+ hours to master virtual production. That journey led him to found Starting Pixel, the leading global community for creators working at the edge of storytelling and emerging tech. He also hosts The Starting Pixel Podcast, where creative and technical pioneers share how they’re reshaping the future of content creation.
