A Kearney native, Bob graduated from Kearney High School in 2002. With a passion for the fine arts, he started out performing in musicals at the high school and community theatre level where he discovered his niche: designing, building and painting scenery. He earned a BFA in Graphic Design and a minor in Technical Theater from the University of Nebraska at Kearney. During that time, he had the opportunity to work at Kearney High School as the Drama Assistant for three years. Bob has designed and painted sets for many local organizations including Zion Lutheran Church, Holy Cross Lutheran Church and Kearney Community Theater. He has served in multiple design capacities with Crane River Theater during the last nine seasons. When he’s not painting, Bob channels his creativity as an Art Director for Buckle Inc. where he manages the graphic design team for online marketing.
