Rocco Malo-Resta
Rocco, he’s not like a regular dad, he’s like a really COOL dad.
Rocco is our Operations Manager here at Lumos, literally spoiling us all. He does everything from accounting, tech support, beating up the printer and making it act right, and aiding in customer care, and keeping all the artists feeling supported. He is a former Computer Engineer at Oregon State University, but Samantha has bribed him with enough loving witchcraft and meals to keep us rowdy artists organized and cared for.
Rocco grew up here in Corvallis, and is enjoying hanging out with our feral loving crew and cracking his dad jokes. When he’s not at Lumos, Rocco likes to spend his time playing piano, guitar, and other string instruments, indulging in delicious foods, working outside, camping, reading and spending time with his family, friends, and pets.
