As an avid boater and outdoors-man, Travis has spent a great deal of time exploring Oregon’s waterways. These experiences have instilled a sense of stewardship and a desire to do more for our riverine ecosystems. He joined River Design Group in 2013 after 8 years of working in other various fields of engineering and truly found his calling when he was introduced to river restoration work. He enjoys the challenges and rewards of his job as an engineering/surveyor technician and hopes to one day achieve licensure as a Professional Land Surveyor (PLS).
With an educational background in Geography and Flight Technology Travis has been able to hone his piloting skills and knowledge as a flight instructor and transfer that knowledge to operating Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV’s). He is a FAA Certified Commercial Pilot and UAV Remote Pilot and oversees flight operations for the RDG Corvallis office.
