Robert serves as Disciplined Growth Investors' Director of Marketing. In this role he is responsible for managing our organization's sales and marketing efforts. Disciplined Growth Investors initially hired Robert in 2000 as a member of the investment team, but his desire to share the story of DGI in an effort to grow the business lead to his decision to join the marketing department in 2003.

Prior to joining Disciplined Growth Investors, Robert enjoyed 12 years in the field of financial services and investment management with US Bank, N.A., in Minneapolis. Initially his role was as a consultant/project manager for investment technologies and systems. In this capacity he built an extensive network of analytical and decision support tools used throughout the investment management process. By 1996, he was approaching completion of his night school MBA program so he welcomed the opportunity to transition to the position of large cap diversified and capital goods analyst. After one year he focused his analytical expertise on technology companies. Prior to his departure from US Bank, Robert was the lead technology analyst for five of First American Fund's small and mid cap mutual funds with combined assets exceeding $2.5 billion.
