Hello, I am

Local Small Business Owner.
Father.
Community Volunteer.
Good Leader.
Your Neighbor.
Why I am running: I love Casselberry. Most of my life has been spent here; I have grown from a young man to a married man with a family, including a child at Casselberry Elementary. I care deeply about how our city is run and how it progresses, and I want to have a say in our future direction. I am an excellent listener and will act as a direct channel from the residents to the city, working to accomplish the goals requested by the people I know, love, and care about in Casselberry.
What I bring to our city: I consider myself the voice of the people. Not only have I lived here most of my life, but I also own a business in the neighborhood, have been actively involved with the Casselberry Chamber of Commerce, and have built many friendships in the area. I will be a reliable figure whom residents can trust and approach with their thoughts. If there are issues in our community, I will find out about them and do my absolute best to represent and support the people of Casselberry.
Casselberry is my home and I plan on being here for the long haul.
My vision of the city is to continue to grow and get better. I believe Casselberry is the next Winter Park since I’ve moved here in 2003-2002 I’ve noticed the growth some streets used to be scary, but now I sometimes don’t even feel like I need to lock my door. I feel that this is a safe amazing place to raise a family.
It is one of the places where you can buy a great home with great land and a great school at a great price and if your don’t feel that way come see me and address your concerns. I would like to keep it that way Casselberry has some of the best amenities parks and swimming pools Secret Lake Park which has the best playgrounds for kids over five to play on. The newly renovated Dew Drop Park where you can watch Amazing sunrises and sunsets and even play volleyball. I want to continue to see Casselberry grow in that way and become even a more amazing place to live
I have called Casselberry home for more than 25 years. I purchased my first home in the Garden District in the early 2000s and have continued to own homes in our community ever since. Over the years, I have built deep roots here and developed strong relationships with residents, local businesses, and community organizations.
For nearly eight years, I have been involved with the Casselberry Chamber of Commerce, including five years on its board of directors, where I served as both vice president and president.
I have also spent the past four years mentoring a local high school student through Take Stock in Children. He is now a senior, and watching his growth has been incredibly rewarding.
In addition, I have served for nearly three years as a trustee on the Board of the Firefighters’ Pension Management Fund and currently serve as secretary. In this role, I help oversee the management of our emergency services pension fund, working to ensure that the men and women who dedicate their careers to protecting our community can retire with dignity.
These experiences have given me a firsthand understanding of Casselberry, its residents, its businesses, and the people who serve our community. More importantly, they have strengthened my commitment to making Casselberry an even better place to live, work, and raise a family.
Now is the Time.

Today, the City of Casselberry Florida is at a major crossroads – Balancing the re-development associated with the people needing good affordable place to live and work outside in North Orlando and the desires of the citizens of Casselberry Florida is no small feat. As I look at the future and what I would like to see for our families, I know I have to lend myself to public service. I’m the father of young boy going to Casselberry Public Schools, who I love with all my heart. The same way many of you feel about your children and grandchildren. I know the community my kid will grow up in is going to be very different from the one I grew up in. I want to look back at my life knowing I did everything in my power to create the kind of future our children deserve—one with an America of opportunity, freedom, equality.
- I want to bring my professional and personal experiences to the City Commission
- I want to be a part of the process of ensuring Casselberry is true to itself
- While paving a path forward that allows it to be attractive to our children when they become young professionals and are in search of a place to call home to build their own families
We have a lot of work to do, but I am excited about the future! I’m not a career politician. I’m a neighbor that loves this city. I’m a job creator and resident of Casselberry who understands the economy and our community needs. As your City Commissioner, my first priority will be to work towards transparent solutions for Casselberry and its’ residents.
Together, we can make this happen.
The future is now for the City of Casselberry. Now is the time to elect someone competent. Travis is the man to help us. Feel secure knowing he is on your side.
