Career Overview

Hello! My name is Travis Vake. I am the new Director of Career Development here at Bois Forte. I have been a Special Education Teacher the past 6 years and have enjoyed every minute of it. I am excited for this new chapter in my life here at Bois Forte and I hope to meet and connect with everyone soon. I am one of four children to my parents. We are a very close family and spend a lot of time together out at our cabin and for holidays. I have one niece and two nephews who I adore and spoil. In my spare time, I enjoy serving on a city council and other boards, hunting, refereeing high school and JUCO sports, and spending time with family and friends. Please feel free to stop by the office anytime and I look forward to working with and meeting everyone up here at Bois Forte.
