Robert John Nuzzie Jr. burst into the world on the auspicious day of March 10, 1980, in the picturesque state of New Jersey. The young Robert was fortunate to have been raised by his loving parents, Robert and Carol Nuzzie, who provided him with a nurturing environment. His father, a talented machinist, brought home the bacon with his skilled hands, while his mother, a dedicated school teacher, instilled in Robert the importance of education.
From a tender age, Robert showcased an extraordinary aptitude for both athletic pursuits and academic endeavors, ultimately culminating in his distinguished graduation from Rutgers University with highest honors, where he was awarded a Bachelor of Arts in Economics. This impressive academic achievement served as a precursor to his pursuit of advanced learning, as he subsequently obtained a Graduate Degree in Pharmaceutical Engineering from New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT).
Influenced by the encouragement and support of his loved ones, Robert decided to venture into the uncharted territory of modeling and acting, leaving behind the stability of his four-year tenure in the pharmaceutical manufacturing sector. This bold move was a testament to his willingness to take risks and pursue his passion.
Following this pivotal decision, Robert relocated to Miami, Florida, a city renowned for its vibrant cultural scene and thriving entertainment industry. It was in this city that he would lay the foundation for a successful career in modeling and acting.
As fate would have it, Robert's arrival in Miami coincided with his discovery by Caroline Gleason Management, a reputable and influential agency in the industry. This chance encounter marked the beginning of a remarkable journey, as Robert soon found himself catapulted to the top of the commercial and fashion modeling world.
Throughout his career, Robert has consistently demonstrated a unique blend of talent, dedication, and perseverance, earning him a reputation as a sought-after model in both the commercial and fashion industries. His impressive portfolio and extensive experience have solidified his position as a respected figure in the world of modeling, and he continues to inspire and influence those around him with his passion and commitment to his craft.
Robert's career trajectory took a significant turn in the year 2008, as he made the bold decision to relocate to the city that never sleeps, New York, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his professional journey.
It was during this period that he secured his first television role on the highly acclaimed and long-running soap opera, "Guiding Light", a platform that would serve as a springboard for his future endeavors.
Following his stint on the soap opera, Robert continued to hone his craft by appearing in a series of smaller yet notable television and film roles, each one providing valuable experience and exposure.
However, it was his subsequent casting as the lead character, Scott Walker, in the feature-length film "The Angel Within" that would prove to be a pivotal moment in his career.
Inspired by a string of tragic teen suicides that had taken place in Maryland, "The Angel Within" was a powerful and thought-provoking film that tackled a sensitive and timely issue.
As Scott Walker, Robert brought depth and nuance to his character, delivering a performance that would leave a lasting impression on audiences and critics alike.
Robert, a visionary individual, chose to inhabit a solitary existence within the untamed wilderness, seeking refuge from the myriad societal ills that plagued the world. This bold decision allowed him to disentangle himself from the complexities of modern life, fostering a sense of clarity and purpose.
In 2009, Robert's entrepreneurial spirit led him to co-found the production company 2B Entertainment, LLC, a venture that would ultimately propel him to prominence as a director of high-profile commercial productions.
Robert, a visionary filmmaker, took the reins as director and co-producer of the highly acclaimed documentary, Perspective: The Nick Scott Story, which made its world premiere at the prestigious 2011 Arnold Schwarzenegger Film Festival and went on to claim the top honor of Best Overall Film.
This impressive achievement did not go unnoticed, and Robert was subsequently extended an exclusive invitation to join the production team of the action-packed thriller, "Escape Plan," directed by Mikael Hafstrom and boasting an all-star cast featuring the likes of Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Jim Caviezel.
Robert's professional journey has been marked by a relentless pursuit of excellence, with a multifaceted career trajectory that has seen him excel in various roles within the film industry.
