Many years ago, Travis was a regular dude working a craptastic regular job at a local retail chain. He stocked things like toilet paper and cases of water. He dreamed of one day working as a network security analyst. Come on... a network security analyst, how much more lame can you get, right? Well one day, things changed and Travis bet all his chips on a pair of twos.

Since then Travis has been enjoying success in living life to its fullest! You might know Travis personally, you might know Travis from an off the wall advertising campaign, you might have met him traveling abroad, or you might have seen him on a TV series. Whichever it may be, you've ended up here and are obviously curious as to who he is and how he got to be where he is now.

Travis currently operates a Seattle based production company, is part of the Discovery channel's Deadliest Catch series, builds retro honda bikes, is an active investor, a globe trotter, and is active in a huge laundry list of other activities.

Staying dynamic in thought and action allow Travis to explore life's challenges and wonders!
