About Travis Gales

I’m a digital content producer, radio host, and creative strategist who helps brands and organizations connect with people through audio, storytelling, and practical digital content.I currently host the Morning Jazz Show and Friday Night Mix on WNCU 90.7 FM, where I blend programming, audience engagement, and sound design to create experiences that feel human, intentional, and relevant. Alongside broadcasting, I produce original music across gospel, jazz, R&B, lo-fi, and seasonal projects, as well as voiceovers, DJ drops, and branded audio content.Outside of radio, I work independently with local businesses and creators to apply modern digital and AI-assisted tools in ways that are simple, ethical, and results-focused—helping them strengthen direct customer relationships, improve content consistency, and reduce reliance on third-party platforms.My work sits at the intersection of creativity, technology, and communication, with a strong focus on clarity, authenticity, and community connection.I’m currently open to opportunities and collaborations in:• Digital & multimedia content production• Podcast and audio production• Creative and content strategy• Audio branding and voice• Community-focused marketing and engagementIf you’re building something that values storytelling, audience trust, and thoughtful use of technology, I’m always open to a conversation.
