Introducing our Tribe...

We are Rob and Christel. We grew up in New York about 5 minutes from each other and were “high school sweethearts”. We will be married 24 years this July. Christel is a stay at home Mom and home schools our two youngest children. Rob is the President and co-founder of an international Human Rights Organization dealing with child trafficking called Love146.


Our Daughter Amber is finishing her junior year at a university in Seattle. She is majoring in Creative Writing and is unbiasedly one of our favorite writers.


Our son Tyler is graduating from high school in a few weeks. He is an excellent athlete, has a sick sense of humor, and has been blessed with a compassionate heart.


Our daughter Michaela is 12 and will be entering Junior High School this September. We adopted Michaela from China when she was two. She seems to have a photographic memory and beats all of us at any board game involving the use of your brain.


Our son Micah is 8. He is our “ACTIVE” child in every sense of the term. He also is a tremendous athlete and a die hard Yankee fan. We adopted Micah here in the U.S. when he was 2 days old.


Our daughter Jasmine (we call her Jazz) is 6. She is an incredibly joyful child and is always singing. We adopted Jazz here in the U.S. when she was 4 days old.


Our Daughter Honour (Anh) is 3 and still in Vietnam, hopefully for not much longer. She has had some health issues but seems to be improving. She is described by her caregiver as a quiet child who likes to climb on everything in the house and loves new clothes. Uh-oh…
