In my own words
— TravisSurfing will always be high on my list of passions in my personal life.
I love to spend time with my family and explore nature’s beauty. I am a natural leader and am most defined by my strong work ethic. I hold a high standard for not only myself but also the people around me. I am passionate with everything I put my name to and love to excel at every detail. I believe in making strong relationships with customers and vendors alike. I am seeking a career in the areas of operations, marketing, or sales and will never forget my immense background in providing exceptional customer service. I want to be part of a company that is growing and where I can make a positive impact.
