About Travis
With a focus in the hospitality sector, Travis has spent the past 20+ years in the construction industry—as a builder, a designer, an owner rep, and an owner himself. After making a name for himself as a go-to bar and restaurant designer through his company KKDW, he started opening his own establishments.
Having completed hundreds of ground-up builds as well as renovations, from NYC to Seattle, Travis eats, sleeps, and breathes (sometimes quite literally) the ins and outs involved with transforming an idea into a built reality. Paired with his operations expertise and experience on the ownership side of successful establishments, Travis will see your project through with aplomb that can only come from decades of and a true dedication to this work. Travis works nationally and has at this point designed and brought to life dozens of award-winning restaurants, bars, retail spaces, and boutique hotels. His extensive cross-functional partnerships coupled with his profound hands-on and owner experience is what sets him apart in the consulting world.
