Robert is a Master Pyrotechnician, Designer and Director for Explosive Entertainment. He joined the company in its inaugural year 1986 and is the most experienced pyrotechnician in Australia. With the application of highly specialised computer software and digital field control computers, Robert has attained a level of pyrotechnic choreography never before seen, which has now become the industry standard. The spectacular comet chases across Sydney Harbour Bridge are an example of Roberts innovative design skills.

A large percentage of the Company's display contracts now require an integrated multi-media approach, invariably with a live-to-air radio or television simulcast and soundtrack. It is Robert's role to integrate these aspects into the design process, thus creating not only a magnificent display, but a media event as well.

Robert has worked internationally in America, Canada, London, Ireland, Hong Kong, China, Paris, Kuwait, Singapore, Taiwan, Macau, Japan, Latvia and New Zealand.

He has also worked on all the major displays on Sydney Harbour since 1986, Australia Day SkyShows and celebrations in Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. In 1999, he designed and choreographed New Year's Eve displays in Melbourne, Sydney, London, Port Moresby, Dunedin, Wellington, Brisbane, Canberra, and Adelaide.

Robert's international design credits include the historic Hong Kong Hand Over, the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games HandOver Ceremony, the 2000 Games Harbour Spectacular and the Riga 800th Anniversary.

Robert is a licensed Pyrotechnician in Australia, New Zealand, England, Ireland and Canada.
