Travis and Ashley first felt called to ministry in the summer of 2014 while serving at Bible camps for Native American teens and elementary students. Responding to God’s leading, they joined Native American Youth Ministries (NAYM) in November of that same year and have since been blessed with many opportunities to serve both the Lord and fellow believers.

Ashley serves as NAYM’s Assistant Treasurer, contributing her skills to the financial stewardship of the ministry. Travis has assisted with editing Navajo translations of the audio Bible in partnership with Bill Odom, and has served as a team leader during youth camps with Southwest Indian Ministries Center. He now runs a full-time pool cleaning business while continuing to support ministry efforts.

In 2020, they welcomed their daughter, Camelia, and are joyfully navigating life as a ministry-minded family.
