During Travis's last semester of college, as he was preparing to graduate early, he continued to stay involved with one of his biggest interests - politics! Taylor always had an interest in the world happening around her and, after a late night talking with a teammate, she decided to join the Carroll University Republican's Club. Once a week, Taylor would round up as many people as she could to join her on the top floor of old Main Hall for the weekly club meeting. Travis would start the night off in class (let's be honest, which was after happy hour) and sneak out to go and join his fellow Republicans. As the semester went on, it was announced that the fourth Presidential debate would be held in Milwaukee on November 10th, 2015 and that volunteers were needed. It was an exciting opportunity for the club so Travis and Taylor jumped at the chance to experience a Presidential debate first hand. As fate would have it, Travis was one of the few members with a car on campus and offered to drive himself and three others, Taylor ending up being one of them! While the other two riders were silent most of the ride, Travis and Taylor were not (since Travis is never silent). The two of them hit it off immediately! The two had their first official date on November 22nd, 2015, and the rest is history.
