Marketing & Student Services Associate |
Skip 15 years from his Shrimp & Grits hustling days, Travis found himself at Skidmore, double majoring in what else but Anthropology-Sociology and Gender Studies. After studying some but playing a lot more, Travis managed to get by graduating summa cum laude - even after a junior year stint in Amsterdam.
With his majors being oh-so-marketable in the New York workforce, Travis found himself in the most logical next step of his career: doing Events and PR at Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club. A few years later, and hearing way too many people say “OMG, I can NOT be seeing wearing those pants AGAIN!” Travis decided to pack his bags, and head uptown to Columbia for a Master’s in anything other than what he was doing. Now that he’s wrapping up his M.A. in Biological Anthropology (what other logical degree would he get?) Travis is relieved to be done with the MCAT, and is preparing his Medical School applications.
At MGMAT, Travis gets way too excited about answering any and all questions GMAT-related. Knowing more than any sane person should know about the GMAT, Travis is more than happy to talk hours on end about the GMAT, B-School applications, et al, to anyone who is willing to listen. The vast exposure to all things GMAT is making him even contemplate a dual MD/MBA degree (apparently Travis is somewhat of a masochist and wants to be done with school at the ripe age of 67).
When not at MGMAT or in class at Columbia, (that leaves about 14 minutes a week) Travis enjoys all things Southern. His obsession with sweet tea and saying “y’all” at least two times in every sentence leaves a lot of room for the ‘yanks’ to make fun of him. Also, he can’t get enough of the beach (lends itself to his constant use of the word ‘like’), and while he deemed it a punishment before, he actually enjoys being a T.A. for Organic Chemistry.
