Get To Know 900lbs: Rob Carroll

What do you do at 900lbs?

Associate Creative Director. I help lead our talented design team and unify all creative ideas to bring our clients’ visions to life.

What do you do for fun? 

I love spending QT with my beautiful wife and two amazing kiddos. I also have two pups that I treat like my children so we have a full house. I’m an avid sports fan and the Texas Rangers and Dallas Cowboys are my teams :). I’ve been an athlete my entire life so extracurricular sports and exercise are critical to keep me centered. Recently, I started playing baseball again so that has been really fun (and challenging) to get back into! I really enjoy woodworking and building furniture and decor with my wife in our garage. Finally, I’m still a gamer at heart and do my best to play the latest and greatest when the family is sound asleep.

If you didn’t grow up in Dallas, where?

I was born in New York actually. Being in a military family, I spent five years on an airbase outside of Tokyo, Japan. I spent a few years in Delaware and finally moved to Houston where I spent most of my growing years. I went to college up in small-town Kansas and finally moved to the awesome city of Dallas in 2009. I plan on being here for a while.

Favorite music?

I grew up listening to everything but really started getting into hip-hop and r&b for the most part. Anything Timbaland was always on the three-piece stereo. When I had kids, I had to keep the lyrics clean so I started jamming a lot of contemporary worship music and Christian hip-hop. My favorite artists today are Andy Mineo, Lecrae, and For King and Country. Lately, I started tuning into 80’s and 90’s stations on the radio… I’m all over the place.
