Heello there,
Ok, my name is Travis, I'm 28, currently a temp at an architecture firm and waiter at Le Pain Quotidien in NYC, used to write for a design/fashion blog and stumlbed upon here through an online article. I am from California, but moved here from Britain last year where I was studying architecture in Newcastle-upon-tyne. My passions, if you will, are anything water- i.e. swimming, free diving, water polo, cliff jumping. I am a huge fan of animals of all types, but am alergic for some devious reason to cats and rabbits. As for more land based activities, I love to read, with my favourite author being William Faulkner, and my goal is to get a graduate degree in industrial engineering or environmental economics, with the goal of using sustanable systematic practices that can be used to improve degrading areas of communities, either in the business and finace realm, or in that of an actual environmental improvement: Through architectural or engineering udgrades that allow a community and area to thrive. A bit wordy, but essentially I want to leave the world a better place than I found it, cheesy but very true.
