Our Guest
Dr. Garcia grew up in a low income household and failed out of high school once and two different colleges. He joined the Air Force and learned the traits of success: hard work, diligence, and developing an unyielding desire for success. He moved to San Diego in 2002 and taught Engineering at Morse High School for five years, despite never having an Engineering degree. An avid speed reader, he credits his academic achievements to “studying from the best, and reading as much as possible.”
Dr. Rob Garcia is an 8 time author and the founder of SHIFT Advanced Life Design Magazine.
