Travis is a remarkable student. Rarely does a teacher encounter a student with such an active mind. Travis seems to be driven to know the why, what, and how about everything. Having Travis in my photography class first semester and then as a TA in photography second semester was like having a second instructor in the classroom. Travis absorbed all that he could about photography including how today's sophisticated digital cameras really work. His photos were some of the best I have seen from a photographer his age. Let me add that he truly kept me on my toes! Travis is a student of everything and certainly is deserving of top cougar status.
Away from school he enjoys playing soccer, basketball and football with his dad. Travis also enjoys photography and flying
R/C planes. His favorite competitive sports are gymnastics and wrestling. He has been a gymnast for six years. Mike Hunziker
Here's what other teachers had to say about Travis:
Travis has perhaps the most natural science mind of any student I have ever taught. He has a tremendous curiosity that never quits. He constantly questions and tests. I hope he will remember me when he gets to MIT.
Matt Condit
"It was my pleasure getting to know Travis over the years. He is an excellent student, athlete, and an example to us all. I count myself lucky to know Travis and to have seen him grow over the years.
Jason McWhirter
