As a second generation native and the youngest of four children, Travis J. Matheny grew up in Aurora, Colorado. He graduated from Overland High School in 1997 and began his college education the next fall at The University of Northern Colorado. After a short one year stint there he transferred to Colorado State University where he graduated in 2002 with a major in political science and a minor in history.
After graduating Travis found his way into the financial services industry where he has remained for the past 15 years. He has held various positions with companies that specialize in retirement planning, healthcare, life insurance, financial record-keeping, client management, retirement plan implementation, and financial sales.
Travis' passion for the industry can be traced to experiences he had early on when he worked as a inbound customer service agent that talked directly to individuals that had questions and concerns about their retirement plans. It became clear that most of those that wanted to retire at a time down the line clearly lacked the one tool that would ensure they could achieve this objective; FINANCIAL LITERCY. This became the catalyst for Travis to start his own practice in July 2014 with a mission of educating everyday people with the knowledge to help them achieve their goals and objectives.
Travis is also very active member of his community in various ways. Rather that be serving on the Board of Directors of two different pubic non-profit organizations, volunteering in schools, or championing topics that promote better healthcare and financial education. His goal was and continues to be that "you give to the community first that will help you grow your business later".
