Travis - Virtual Production Artist

My name is Travis, and I am a virtual production artist.

I was raised in Bismarck, North Dakota. I attended Bismarck State College and received a degree in liberal arts. I moved to the Twin Cities in 2001 and attended Minneapolis Community & Technical College and received a degree in Graphic Art and Visual Communication. I worked various freelance and design jobs before moving back to Bismarck and working for Design Wizards as a graphic artist.

I moved back to Minnesota and started my career with Crystal D in 2015 as a production artist in the art department before moving to the solutions team as the virtual production artist.

Most of my off time these days is spent shuttling my two kids around to various activities and going on fun adventures. I also really enjoy fine art, street art, digital art, fashion and music.

Something Surprising: I used to be cool, but now I’m a suburban soccer dad and I’m OK with that.
