Travis Grundke

A graduate of The College of Wooster, Travis studied International Relations, Spanish, and Economics. Following college he worked in retail. He attended graduate school in Spain, acting as facilities manager for The Hiram House during his breaks back in the US. While he developed a great appreciation for Jamón Serano, olive oil, and marcona olives, he missed leading a team and solving problems.

It was after his return to the US in 2002 that Jim Millican met up with Travis to gauge his interest in coming to work with him at Ashton. Travis started as a field technician and has worked his way up the ranks, assuming the role of Service Manager in 2010, and Vice President, Operations, in 2020.
