Hi, I'm Travis, a teacher turned stay-at-home dad turned freelance writer. After a major change in the life of my family, I was given one of those rare "follow your dreams" opportunities. Deciding to not return to education, especially after receiving my Master's Degree and teaching license, was a scary decision, but one that I'm glad I made.

Now, I have the wonderful opportunity of homeschooling my two children, ages 5 and 3, while jumping into the world of freelance writing. While I write on many different topics--parenting, education, the outdoors--I especially enjoy focusing my work on mountain biking. After too many years off the trails, I have quickly fallen back in love with mountain biking. I look forward to sharing my thoughts, ideas, and adventures, both on and off the bike, with you!
