    TRAVIS MILLS - RETIRED US ARMY STAFF SERGEANT, MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER, ACTOR, AUTHOR, ADVOCATE

    On April 10th, 2012, on his third tour of duty in Afghanistan, Travis Mills lost portions of both arms and legs to an improvised explosive device. Many, if not most, would have given up. But giving up isn't really his style. Not only has he continually overcome the day to day struggles of his new physical reality, he has turned his experience into a support system for post 9/11 veterans who have been injured in service to our nation, founding the Travis Mills Foundation with his wife Kelsey. He also regularly visits wounded veterans in recovery, sharing his story and offering them hope when they need it most. His motto of, "Never Give up. Never quit." isn't just a slogan, it's something he lives every day, demonstrating a relentless desire to live life, help others, be a father and husband to his family, and continue to be an inspiration to everyone he crosses paths with.

    When Matt Mackenzie told his family and friends that he was quitting his teaching job to pursue his passion for basketball player development, they tried to tell him that it wouldn't work, that there wasn't enough calling for it in rural Maine, and that he should just stick with the security afforded to him in the classroom. Now, almost 15 years later, he's turned his passion into a thriving business, training not only the next generation of local talent, but this years #1 NBA draft pick - Cooper Flagg.
