Powering Clarksville: Faith, Family, and the Future of the Trades

Chris and Stephanie Travis, the husband-and-wife team behind Travis Electrical Service in Clarksville, share how they transitioned from careers in firefighting and education to building one of the region’s most respected electrical contracting companies. Guided by their Christian faith and a commitment to service, they discuss how their business philosophy blends entrepreneurship with community impact. From supporting leadership initiatives to helping bring the Tennessee Wings of Liberty Museum to life, the couple explains why investing in Clarksville matters to them. They also dive into their registered apprenticeship program, an effort to tackle the skilled-labor shortage by offering free training and mentorship to the next generation of electricians while working to “elevate the trades.”
