Robert then entered LMU hoping to become a cinematographer but found his passion in writing, directing and producing. In this way, he can tell stories that inspire others to be better versions of themselves. As a Mexican-American, Robert feels that minorities and women are not truly represented in the industry, leading to stereotypes and typecasting. Therefore, he always aims for an assortment of cast and crew, in this way various stories can be told.

He will always have a passion to inspire through story.
