He regularly works on high-profile cases in the capacity of quantification of economic damages associated with breach of contract and theft of intellectual property, forensic accounting analyses associated with government-led investigations of consumer fraud, complex accounting analyses for securities litigation and post-acquisition disputes.

In 2016, Travis was appointed to the American Institute of CPA’s (AICPA) Forensic and Litigation Services (FLS) Committee. This nine-member committee provides technical and educational guidance to CPA practitioners performing forensic accounting services, including investigations, economic damage analyses such as lost profits calculations, and a variety of other services. Additionally, Travis recently served as the Chair of the Economic Damages section of the California Society of CPA’s (CalCPA) Forensic Services Section (FSS) and currently serves on CalCPA’s Council.

His experience includes financial and accounting analyses associated with the restatement of quarterly and annual reports, development and management of complex economic damage models associated with breach of contract, intellectual property, antitrust and false claims litigation, and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ( FCPA)  due diligence and compliance testing for multi-national corporations in various foreign countries. Travis has also been engaged by government agencies to perform forensic accounting investigations in various industries, most notably, for-profit higher education and medical device.

Additionally, Travis actively supports legal services non-profits in the San Francisco Bay Area through his service on the Board of Legal Aid of Marin and engagement with OneJustice.
