Who is Rob Martinez?

I’m Rob Martinez, and I make videos about people and food. You might not know my face, since I usually only appear in my videos for about 1 second, but you may know my videos about hot dogs in New Jersey or a legendary cheesecake maker in Oakland.

I focus on places, and I ask myself: If I lived here, what are the spots that I would be proud to call my own? Then I make 5-7 videos about that place, which is how I ended up going viral in Columbus Ohio.

I am taking baby steps towards making this a legitimate publication with the same intentionality that my video work is known for. Subscribe to get full access now and help me build. Thanks so much.
