Travis accepted Christ as his savior at an early age and was a member of Mt. Rona Baptist Church, now known as Crossroads Community Church.

He graduated from Heritage High School in 2012. Upon graduation, he attended Delaware State University where he graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communications.  Travis had the pleasure of being presented his degree by now President Joe Biden.  During his matriculation at Delaware State, Travis was involved in a number of activities that include: President of the National Association of Black Journalists, Senior Class Recording Secretary, The Hornet Newspaper contributing writer, Dean's List, and Student of the Year Nominee.
