Travis is a freelance writer and journalist hailing from southwest Michigan. He holds a bachelor’s degree in journalism from Western Michigan University. He got his start in hard news, writing for newspapers. His work was published in papers in Wyoming, Nevada, Texas, and Michigan. He’s done freelance work off and on for the Vicksburg-based South County News for the last decade.
Travis found his niche in outdoor writing about hunting, fishing, camping, and more. He has worked as a full-time staff writer for Wide Open Spaces, and Field & Stream. It was during his stints at these publications that he built up an extensive network of contacts with other editors and numerous storied outdoor brands across the industry. It was during his time at WOS and F&S that he gained experience in SEO style writing. It was at these brands he learned to use services such as Ahrefs, Semrush, Trackonomics, Clearscope, and Parsely analytics.
While he has experience across a spectrum of different outdoor writing types, Travis’ specialty is in gear writing. Specifically new product coverage, gear reviews, and roundups that are written specifically to rank high in Google search results.
