I was impressed beginning with my onboarding process forward by how well-organized, professional, and technically advanced Travis’ department was. Under his leadership, the Technical Solutions group provided enterprise-class support, technology infrastructure, self-service knowledge base, and consulting and sales enablement platforms rivaling those of any size organization. In addition to his technical skill set, Travis excels in thought leadership, personnel and program management, and internal and external communication.

“Travis and I have been colleagues for more than five years; however, within the last year, we have worked closely together on planning for a large Microsoft Office 365 migration and how this would affect the organization. This transition needed thoughtful planning around migrating data from an old Exchange 2010 system. Travis—and his team—executed this migration flawlessly. Out of hundreds of mailboxes and hundreds of thousands of messages, not a single email was lost. Travis believes in the adage to measure twice, cut once and his implementation on this and other projects was spot-on.” —LinkedIn Recommendation

I would highly recommend Travis to any organization that is looking to bring on a talented and motivated technology expert with the ability to mentor direct reports and manage an organization’s overall technology needs with extreme attention to detail.” —LinkedIn Recommendation
“Travis by far is the best manager I have ever worked for. In his role as the Chief Technology Officer, he has been able to keep uptime at 100% for more than 7+ years which is unheard of in Technology. He often works nights/weekends/holidays to ensure a company doesn’t feel any pain and keeps things running. His knowledge base is ever growing and does not seem to be slowing down. When it comes to people, he is second to none and will encourage growth, foster training at all skill levels, resolves conflicts and understands a work-life balance to make working for him an enjoyable experience.

This is a rare and valuable skill!” —LinkedIn Recommendation

“I am honored to recommend Travis…. In three years of getting to work with Travis, I’ve been very impressed with the way he leads with three focuses in mind: what are the best solutions for the organization, what is the best solution for his “customer” and how to best ensure that his customers feel supported. It is rare for an IT professional to take such care to ensure that people know what’s coming, why, what the expectations are of them and how Travis and his team will support them. In a world where technology can be intimidating, Travis has a way of putting things into terms that his customers can connect with and feel confident in. Most importantly, he is always patient while teaching people “how to fish” and that is one of his finest qualities. The combination of his technical aptitude in all aspects of IT, his focus on customer service and his team mentality are rare and any company would be fortunate to have him!” —LinkedIn Recommendation
