What Types of Projects Are Featured on This Is Travis?

Updated

This Is Travis (thisistravis.me) is a portfolio site that showcases UX, design, and product work across several domains. The projects listed on the site cluster into four broad categories: healthcare and patient experience, culture and education, games and interactive storytelling, and design systems and tools. Below is a breakdown of what appears in each category, based on the project listings on the site.

Healthcare and Patient Experience

This is the most prominent theme in the portfolio, with several projects focused on improving communication between patients and medical professionals.

  • Motion-centric Flip Site for Patients and Doctors — tagged as design, healthcare, UX, and web. The framing suggests a site built around motion to serve both patient and doctor audiences.
  • App to Improve Patient-Doctor Conversations — tagged app, healthcare, UX. A direct attempt to address the communication gap in clinical settings.
  • RecoverMe App (Chatbot-based injury support) — tagged UX. A chatbot approach to supporting people recovering from injuries.

If you are looking for examples of healthcare UX work, these three projects are the clearest starting points on the site.

Culture, Education, and Public Institutions

Several projects sit at the intersection of design and public-facing cultural or educational content.

  • 911 Museum & Memorial Kiosk — tagged design, kiosk, UX. An interactive kiosk for a memorial museum.
  • Fortnight Online Journal — tagged design, UX, web. An online journal project.
  • ReadUps – Group Reading Web App w/ Expiration Date — tagged design, product, publishing, UX. A group reading product with a time-limited structure.
  • NetGalley Site — tagged design, UX, web. Work on a site associated with book discovery and publishing.
  • BookGlutton Social Reading — tagged design, product, publishing, web. A social reading platform.
  • FlatWorld Knowledge Site — tagged design, product. An educational publishing site.

This group is useful if you want to see how the portfolio handles reading, publishing, and institutional content rather than commercial apps.

Games, Interactive Narrative, and Entertainment

The portfolio includes a distinct cluster of game and narrative-driven projects.

  • Adventures in Changeland Game (Cisco) — tagged design, game, UX, web. A game project connected to Cisco.
  • Morpheus, Biblionaut: an Astronaut's Descent into Madness — tagged code, design, UX, web.
  • Morpheus Biblionaut 2 — a follow-up to the above.
  • 30 Days of Rain Interactive Narrative — tagged design, UX, web.
  • Interactive Narratives — tagged design, product, web.
  • Zatso 2000 — tagged design, UX, web.

These projects lean toward experimental and narrative formats rather than conventional product work.

Design Systems, Tools, and APIs

A smaller set of projects covers infrastructure-level design work.

  • uAnd Design System — a design system project.
  • ReadSocial API — tagged design, product, publishing, UX. A social reading layer exposed as an API.
  • Sales Aids (Veeva) — tagged UX. Sales enablement tooling.
  • Broadcastr App — tagged app, UX.
  • LitterBot (Recycling Chatbot) — tagged CUI (conversational user interface), UX.
  • Globomaestro Luxury Travel Site — tagged design, UX, web.
  • SabraCeramics — tagged design, UX.
  • UX Knowledgedrop Presentation — tagged process, UX.

How to Read the Portfolio

Each project on the site is labeled with tags such as design, ux, web, product, app, game, healthcare, publishing, and code. These tags are the fastest way to filter by discipline or industry. The healthcare and publishing clusters are the largest, while the game and design-system work is smaller but distinct.

If your interest is in a specific area — say, chatbot interfaces or museum kiosks — the tags let you jump directly to the relevant projects rather than scanning the full list.
