Role with Creatis: Creative Director at Minnesota Realtors®
There’s no time like the ever-changing present for companies to innovate and reinforce strong values. One could argue that especially during challenging times, values and innovation must go hand-in-hand. Minnesota Realtors® is succeeding by doing just that.
The Minnesota-based non-profit has unveiled a new, vibrant brand identity that energizes and upholds their enduring mission to serve Minnesota real-estate agents—empowering members to come together and grow their businesses and help the industry prosper. Their many services to real-estate professionals include offering legal support, providing continuing education, strengthening the Realtor® Code of Ethics and hosting events and networking opportunities.
Creatis has been so pleased to provide Minnesota Realtors® with a creative talent to help elevate the organization’s brand over the past 6 months. That expert and creative director is Creatis employee Travis Wavescorx.

What brought you to Creatis? How did you get connected with our team?
A friend recommended Creatis. I had been with my previous company for around 8 years, and I was craving something new. After reaching out and meeting with Julie Mattson (Relationship Manager at Creatis), it wasn't more than a week or so before my first interview with a client was arranged.
What made Creatis a great career fit at this time?
The people at Creatis worked hard to ensure they could find the right fit for me. Julie understood the criteria I was looking for in an opportunity, and she found an ideal match straight away. Above all, Creatis makes everything easy. I do freelance work as well, but it’s nice to have that steady work on a longer term project without needing to invoice clients and chase down payments. I’d rather be creating stuff!
What kind of work have you been doing Minnesota Realtors®
In my role as Creative Director at Minnesota Realtors®, I’ve been very fortunate to support a company with a highly capable team. I enjoy working with amazing people that push each other to be our very best, and I have that here like never before. I’ve also been able to engage with the full spectrum of my creativity, which is very important to me. From design to video production, editing and animation, I get to do it all on a weekly, if not daily, basis. So boredom is not an option here.
Any work from home tips or advice you'd care to share with the world?
Yes, definitely. When you work from home, you need to feed your 4 year old constantly, like all day. If she has food in her mouth she can’t scream while you’re in a Zoom meeting. But in all seriousness, these are unprecedented days for everyone. It’s good to keep a sense of humor, treat everyone with kindness and make the most of things.
Do you have any hidden talents, hobbies or goals you'd like to share with the world?
I’m in a band with my fiancé called Firebirdie. We’ve been releasing singles and music videos leading up to our debut album, coming out later this year. If the world ever returns to some kind of normalcy, the dream is to tour the world and have Radiohead open for us someday. Or maybe Beyoncé, if she plays her cards right.
