Bio
Shane Zink
I've had the good fortune of working with many talented individuals in my professional career and Travis, in my mind, ranks towards the top. I was only able to work with him for a short time while at Qwick and his impact during that time frame was astounding. The way he launched his market was thoughtful and highly strategic, his relationship-building was some of the best in the company and, to top it all off, his leadership skills were off the charts. Travis is a type of leader that is inherently intelligent but humble and willing to solicit feedback to further improve. I don't write many recommendations, but I am here to say that if you don't have Travis Davidson on your team, you are making a grave mistake.
