Travis Gauthier Email & Phone Number

Ever since I was a little kid I had a fascination with weather and cars. I remember watching the local news and telling everyone to quiet down because the local meteorologist was on. I would also watch the weather channel quite a bit, especially during hurricane season. That passion for science and severe weather continues to this day. I love looking at the radar, forecasts, and predicting where a storm may go. I took that passion to Central Michigan University where I studied Meteorology. I learned quite a bit in college, and learned that meteorology is not as simple as what you see on your local news. I loved the complexity of it all, and looking at piles of data to figure out if my forecast would be correct. While I was attending University I entered a national weather forecasting competition, and that brought out a lot of joy as I was able to see when my forecasts were correct. I also have a second passion in the automotive field. As a teenager I loved working on cars and actually drew quite a bit of them when I was a kid. That passion carried over in high school and college where a I took a few classes in computer aided drafting as well as many automobile repair classes. To this day I still love getting under the hood of a vehicle and seeing how everything is put together. My current position in the automobile industry allows me to get my hands on vehicles everyday and live out one of my passions.
