Bobby was born in Rochester, New York and moved with his family to
Margate, Florida, a suburb of Pompano Beach at the age of seven. He was

He attended Cornell for two years and graduated from Florida Atlantic University with a B.S. in Communications.

He sold his first jokes to comedian/impressionist Fred Travalena while at TV 12.

While at KJEZ, "The New Z-95", Bobby showcased his comedic chops with the #1 morning show, "Mr. Robby in the Morning". After two years on the air and a few "Silver Microphone Awards" under his belt, Bobby headed out West to pursue his stand-up comedy and acting career. He's appeared on Comedy Central, "E" and The Style Network as well as independent film.
