I fondly remember meeting Travis for the first time at the 2002 Southern Cal Regional. RAWC was a rookie, but they sure did not look like it. They had a fantastic looking robot that was very capable of winning. They have only improved.

Travis is one of the best young designers in FIRST. He takes risks in design and is always striving to learn. His designs are clean, efficient, and they WORK.

Kudos to Travis. He has great skills. :)

Congratulations Travis and thanks for partnering with us in S. Calif. We were close, so close, and it was great fun.

You and your whole team have a class act, and we are always excited to see your latest creations.

Coming from one of his own team members, this might be a biased opinion, but without Travis, our team wouldn't function. Our work area would look like what most of our rooms look like, and mine has it's own climate, ecosystem, and fossil record. Travis is the driving force behind RAWC, and many times, he's the reason the robot works.

Travis does get mad easily, but it's because no one seems to care as much as he does (if we all did, there would be well over 2,000 teams). Travis gets mad because of lack of organization, effort, and sleep. He deserves this award because he's the one standing behind the drivers, screaming at them to do something 5 seconds before it's needed.

Travis (Along with Kirk) has done everything humanly possible to help this team, and he would do more if he could go more than 48 hours without sleep.
