Travis Varga

Creative Media Producer

How I Arrived at Ritholtz

“After Film School, with the rise of online media, I shifted my focus from ‘making movies’ to creative content like podcasts and YouTube. When the opportunity to work with RWM & The Compound emerged, I was super keen to join the team and help provide financial edu-tainment that can truly help people.”

Favorite Part Of The Job

“Producing engaging material that provides trusted information & resources – knowledge the viewer didn’t have or think of beforehand. It’s extremely rewarding to entertain people with media that can also enhance their livelihood.”

When I'm Not Working

“You can catch me out in the ocean surfing, on a hike near the beach, or simply enjoying the sunshine on a nice day.”
