Robin received musical training from Pfeiffer University in Meisenheimer, NC. After five years working as a church choir director and youth director, she entered Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary (LTSS) in Columbia, SC to be trained for the ordained ministry. During her training at the seminary Robin focused on pastoral care and counseling with a special emphasis on spiritual direction. In 1994 she obtained a Masters of Divinity (M.Div.) degree with special studies in the writings of the early church mystics.
In 2007 Robin moved to the mountains of Western NC and now performs and writes in Jackson County while also expanding her art to include the visual work of photography, painting and pastel work.
