With more than 25 years of industry experience, Rob knows that life and planning are inextricably attached at the hip. A passionate and committed entrepreneur, Rob combined the notions of trust, leadership and empathy with the need for well-designed, actionable, independent financial and life advice to launch Armstrong Advisors (at Summit Financial LLC).

Rob’s clients are high net worth executives, successful entrepreneurs and Wall Street professionals. More importantly, they’re mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, husbands and wives. In their lives away from the office, they find themselves routinely sandwiched between raising children and caring for their aging parents.

Rob knows firsthand the pressures his clients face. As a father of three, a husband of 25 years and the proud son of a mother that has spent over a decade in assisted living, Rob is keenly aware of the challenges that life can bring to the table. Rob’s process is rooted in bringing his experience, confidence and leadership to like-minded families who want to navigate the road ahead.

Rob graduated from Gettysburg College with a BA in Management and Fairleigh Dickinson University with a Master’s Degree in Financial Economics.
