Bob has been working with Properties of The Villages since 2015.  He is a native New Yorker, born in Brooklyn and raised on Long Island in the city of Glen Cove.  He held a wide variety of sales and customer service positions in the technology industry prior to earning his Florida real estate license.

His business career started in New York City selling office equipment for Exxon Office Systems (yes, that Exxon) and then selling funds transfer systems internationally for S.W.I.F.T.  Bob also held various sales and customer service leadership positions with Caere Corporation where he rose to the level of Vice President North American Sales and Service, and VeriSign where he was Vice President of Sales leading the global SSL team.  Bob was also the Chief Revenue Officer at DNN Corporation overseeing global sales and customer service before beginning his journey with The Villages.

Various members of Bob’s family have lived in The Villages since 2001 and following their first visit to The Villages Bob and his wife Maria began discussing the possibility of one day calling The Villages their home.  In 2015 they decided to accelerate the process and escape from Northern California with their two children.  Bob’s son Marcello is now a senior at The Villages Charter High School and his son Vincenzo is assisting Bob with customer communications at Properties of The Villages while pursuing a career in writing.  Bob and his family now live in the beautiful new family community of Middleton.

Bob enjoys spending a majority of his time with his family.  He has coached baseball for over 40 years and is thrilled that his entire family is engaged with baseball related activities ranging from driveway whiffle ball games to high school and travel baseball. Additionally, MLB spring training games have represented one of the many highlights of life in Central Florida for the family.

“I could not imagine a more fulfilling second career or having been more blessed to be working with Properties of The Villages.  It is an absolute pleasure to be working with our current and future residents and I am thrilled to be associated with such a stellar organization”.
