In 2009 he switched from the soil conservation district to working directly for the Natural Resource Conservation Service as a technician until May of 2013. Travis transitioned to retail agronomy and worked in two different locations, the second location made it possible for Travis and his wife to move to Pierre, SD. While in Pierre, Travis became interested in insurance, so he obtained his property/casualty, life/health, and crop licenses. During this time, Travis was also attending college online. He graduated on December 8th, 2018 with a B.S. degree in Management from Northern State University located in Aberdeen, SD.
