Born in Canada, Bob first came to the Philippines in 1982 as the country manager for a major international commodities trading company. He decided to settle down in the Philippines in 1995. Bob founded TicketWorld, which provided computerized ticketing and box office services to the major venues and promoters in the Philippines.

In cooperation with a local partner, Bob developed the marketing and production team that produced and supported the Manila seasons of WICKED, The Phantom Of the Opera, Les Misérables and Disney’s The Lion King.

Bob has since retired as CEO of TicketWorld and now continues to be part of bringing international touring productions to Manila.
