Born in Gaylord, MI, United States of America, Travis started Humble Fox Books to first print and publish his own books. He later opened the door for others to have their books published without the hassle of having to hire an agent to sell their book for them. He has always sought to make it easier for authors to get their work published without extra costs for them. He enjoys reading and writing and the occasional sketch. He was 22 when he first thought of the idea and then in January of 2017 he started to make preparations to officially start the company though he had been running under the name since 2011 when he birthed the idea. It wasn't until 2018 that he added two employees other then himself and his wife. He still dreams big and hopes for future generations to be once more a generation of readers.
