TLDR
Hey there! I’m Robb Boyd, and I’ve been on quite a journey in the world of technology, media, and storytelling. I’ve had a career filled with some pretty wild rides, spanning over two decades and covering all sorts of fascinating corners of telecommunications and tech.

You might know me best from my days as the creator and driving force behind TechWiseTV over at Cisco. I had the time of my life crafting that show, blending deep-dive technical knowledge with a sprinkle of humor (okay, maybe a bit more than a sprinkle) to keep things entertaining. I also had the privilege of connecting with tech communities face-to-face at Cisco Live events across the U.S. and Europe. Nothing beats the energy of a live crowd, and those experiences were definitely some of my career highlights.

Throughout my career, I’ve been lucky enough to snag over 23 industry awards and was even nominated for two Emmys for some animated explainer videos I created. Recognition is great, but for me, it’s always been about sharing stories and insights that help people see the bigger picture and get excited about what’s possible in tech.

ExplaiNerds: Where Complex Meets Captivating

At ExplaiNerds, we don’t just share insights; we set them on fire. The world is buzzing with brilliant minds brimming with game-changing ideas, yet so many struggle to communicate their genius in a way that truly resonates. That’s where we come in.

Having partnered with some of the sharpest engineers and savvy B2B marketers out there, I’ve seen the struggle firsthand: profound understanding on one side and effective storytelling on the other, separated by a seemingly unbridgeable gap. ExplaiNerds is here to close that gap, turning dense technical details into engaging, relatable stories that captivate and connect.

In short?

We’re the storytellers for the world’s brainiacs.
