WHO IS ROBERT R. HYLTON III?
Metaphysically, who's to say.
Physically, I'm pictured to the right.
Although I'm one of three Robert R. Hyltons in my family, I assure you I am one of one. Fortunately, I've been called "bizarre" all my life, which leads to great stories (life experience) and even better teamwork. Using this knack for teamwork, I would love to one day organize the pursuits and systems of corporate philanthropy.
My Loves
The National Parks, cooking expensive meals at home for cheap, any and all live music, the art of gardening, skiing beyond my abilities, playing tennis too seriously, playing ice hockey unseriously, reading pretty much any book that I get recommended, pushing through discomfort to find new hobbies, and last but certainly not least, I love my Dobermans, Spencer and Basel.
Past Careers
In order: voter registration, Chinese restaurant cook at Legoland, butcher at Whole Foods in San Diego, the marketing intern for Manuel Ángel Conejero, butcher at Whole Foods in Boulder, writer/photographer at CU Independent, bartender at (you guessed it) Whole Foods in San Francisco, online marketplace manager at Bonafide Provisions, and cook for James Beard nominated chef, Chris Lockhart, at Prerogative Kitchen and Tippet Rise Art Center.
