Meet Our Furniture Dealer Team

Rob’s 25 years’ experience in the office furniture industry has resulted in his being fortunate enough to have managed millions of square feet of office furniture specification and installations throughout the United States.  

Some of these projects include Church & Dwight’s Ground Up Ewing Headquarters,  Regeneron’s restack of their largest research facility in Albany NY, as well as multiple projects for Simon & Schuster, Vitech, Health and Hospitals Corp, TMP Worldwide, GHI’s NY headquarters, PepsiCo, Cushman & Wakefield, Jefferies, Needham and Co, Pfizer and countless others.  

Rob is humbled and appreciative of the fact that many of the clients that he worked with twenty years ago remain, clients and friends, today.

After successfully building one of the largest Pre-owned furniture companies in the United States, Rob and his team launched K Offices in 2015.  The mission statement was clear.  Client services first and foremost!  To be a key resource to clients the K Offices team, worked hard to create a full-service dealership, nimble enough to respond to the ever-changing office interior landscape and deep enough to produce quality work quickly.  

The streamlined, team approach, has allowed K Offices to achieve 30% year over year growth, while also having the privilege of being a valuable partner to so many successful organizations. Every day the K Offices team focuses on their core competencies, in the form of 

consulting on space and personnel programming, current and future office trends and design, ergonomics, and technology well before projects kick-off.

In Rob's past business models, there was significant reliance aimed at selling to the customer, based on what was available. Rob has transformed his business model, whereby now the key difference is rather than have a limited palette of furniture options to offer the clients, K Offices have strong relationships with well over a hundred quality manufacturers located around the world.

These relationships, as well as the design team’s knowledge of the industry and trends, allows the K Offices team to take an agnostic approach to each project and offer multiple, thoughtful solutions. 

The result is the creation of environments where people can flourish.

Rob’s role as Principal allows him to touch and oversee every project; whether it’s a twenty-five hundred square foot professional office or a thousand-person headquarters relocation.  

K Offices is privileged to have the confidence of a large client base and a steady stream of referrals, so rather than concentrate on a sales team K Offices can focus on their client needs. Rob devotes his time to listening carefully to client’s needs and assuring that their projects are installed on time, on budget and result in the creation of a beautiful and efficient office workspace tailored to the unique needs and preferences of each client.
