Travis was born in Canada to Glen and Maria Hildebrand, two parents whom loved each other very much. His childhood and home life were both good by just about every metric. His father tried to instill the value of hard work and earning respect, while his mother tried to raise a loving, caring boy who wouldn't hurt a soul. Both were successful in some aspects, while failing in others. Travis' core moral values are built on mutual respect and love, and he values earning his way rather than being catered to. He has a soft spot for all women and would never be able to willingly bring harm to any female. All of which can be traced back to how he was raised. However, due to obvious favourtism of his older brother Brian and his parents trying to make Travis fit something he was not, he grew to resent his family. He especially grew to resent and later hate Brian, the golden child. Travis' father Glen was a devout Christian in the public, but in their home he could be mean and would get angry and yell at Travis often. His mother Maria would allow Travis to get verbally abused by Glen, often telling Travis that things would be good if Travis just listened and behaved like Brian. Travis was a very unhappy and angsty child as a result. He would often get into fights on the schoolyard and was always at the principal's office. Once in highschool Travis began to experiment with drugs. He started out with weed and booze, often consuming both at weekend house parties. Travis began to develop into a class clown of sorts, telling jokes and making a fool of himself, just to make people notice him. One day, in grade 9 French class, Travis met a girl named Annabelle. Annabelle was a shy, scared girl who was hiding some trauma of her own. Together, the two of them began experimenting in harder drugs throughout highschool. Before the end of their 4 years together, Travis found a love for psilocybin mushrooms and Annabelle found heroin. Travis grew to love Annabelle very much and was about to give her everything and trust her to be his first intimate relationship. Unfortunately, this ended in tragedy as Annabelle overdosed on heroin and died the night of their prom. Annabelle began to feel sick at the after party and Travis thought she was just drunk. Travis took Annabelle back to the hotel room where he wrapped her up in a blanket and cuddled her instead of their grand romantic night. When Travis woke the next morning he was clutching a lifeless body soaked in sweat and sick. This has spurred Travis to give up all drugs completely and never look back. He sometimes still misses the sights and sounds of a good high, but he doesn't reminisce for long before he is haunted by the death of his first love. Since then, Travis has felt drawn to addicts who are trying to better themselves. To cope with Annabelle's death, Travis began seeking comfort in alcohol and adrenaline. He purchased a motorcycle on his 19th birthday, which even further strained his relationship with his family. Shortly after, Travis left home, making it the last time he ever spoke to his brother or his father. His mother would occasionally call him to ensure Travis was not dead, but eventually he stopped picking up her calls, then the calls stopped coming. On his 21st birthday, still trying and failing to deal with the loss of Annabelle, he decided to sell all of his belongings and ride across the border on his Western Roadie Glide. He spent over an entire year riding all over America, squatting on couches, abandoned house and sometimes on the streets. Food, shelter and water were never sure things so Travis picked up some nasty habits, most notably was theft, and, when it was called for, murder. Travis' heart grew hardened and cold. He became more self sufficient than ever and worked hard at keeping all feelings of love and romance as far away as possible. Eventually Travis' "pilgrimage" came to an end in what can only be called a close call. Growing ever more weary of the life he lived and not wanting to die before he hit 30, Travis decided he would move to Los Santos in September of 2021. In the beginning, he couldn't afford the import fees for his Glide, so he started working as a mail driver for GoPostal. There he met Stefford Johnson, the GoPostal Union leader. Travis joined the union and reaped the benefits. He eventually was able to afford to import his Glide, but not before getting mixed up with The Collective as one of their weed dealers. He was able to reason with himself that weed never killed anybody, and that he was only doing it for money. Eventually he landed on the front step of Black Lotus MC, where he met his future wife Hattie Hildebrand (née Grimes). Things started off slow enough with both Hattie and BLMC. It's been told to Travis that he holds the record for most beaten as a hangaround. As time progressed, Travis began to grow from a scared little boy, to a confident young man with a home. As of Sunday, October 3rd, 2021, Travis became a prospect for BLMC. He continue to works really hard at earning the respect and trust of the first place he's ever felt he belongs and holds one of three Enforcer flashes in the club. In February Travis and Hattie got married and in May, they both inherited the Hawkins Hideout from previous owner Alex Taylor. Together Hattie and Travis work at building a life for themselves that they both can be proud of.

Travis writes memoirs about his life often. During the days Travis can either be found at home, devoting himself to his wife, or in Mirror Park devoting himself to his club. Travis doubts himself a lot, but he is sure that he his married to the best woman ever and part of the best family ever.
