Travis Dybdahl

Director

    Over the years, I’ve closely followed Huna Totem’s growth as a shareholder, witnessing its transformation into a diverse and successful corporation. I’m particularly proud of its commitment to local business opportunities, providing employment for residents and shareholders alike. If elected, I eagerly anticipate the challenge of guiding the corporation forward and contributing to its ongoing success. With Huna Totem being in the solid financial position it is, my focus will be on enhancing governance and I aim to leverage my knowledge and business experience for the benefit of the corporation and its stakeholders.

    Balancing work and family have always been a priority for me, and now that my children are older, I’m excited to embrace new challenges and give back to the communities that raised me and held me up. Serving on the Huna Totem board aligns perfectly with my desire to make a meaningful impact and I hope to assist in ensuring a prosperous future for shareholders and generations to come.
