Our Team

Robert is originally from Oceanside, CA but being the son of a US Marine, he had the opportunity to move frequently and experience life in different parts of the country. He graduated with a BA in Psychology from Claremont McKenna College. Not long after college, he moved to Arizona, where his 25 year long career in sales management took on many different challenging opportunities. Robert and his wife Terri were inspired to open Tyler’s Place because they have a teenage son with autism and they just could not find a good enough after school program for him. Robert enjoys traveling, tennis and the Arizona outdoors which means he likes to get out and go off roading with his son Tyler as often as he can.

“As a proud autism dad, my first priority will always be to make sure that our members have an engaging and uplifting experience when they set foot inside our facility.”
