Hi! My name is Travis. I’m 36 years old and currently at Graham Correctional Center in Illinois. I’m hoping to meet some new people, make genuine friendships, and maybe find a special connection along the way.

I’m definitely not the easiest person to put into one category because I have a lot of different interests. I enjoy gaming, motorcycles, welding, and working as a millwright. I like working with my hands, learning how things work, and being able to build or fix things. I’ve also spent eight years in the military, which has had a big influence over who I am and how I look at life.

Being a father is another very important part of who I am. Family means a lot to me, and my sister has always been my rock. Having someone in your corner when life gets difficult is something I truly appreciate, and that shouldn't be taken for granted.

When I have some downtime, I enjoy video games, tattoos, Rick and Morty, and Dungeons & Dragons. Yes, I’m one of those people who can get way too invested in a good D&D campaign! I also love music and enjoy discovering songs I can put on repeat. One of my current favorites is “Sunroof” by Nicky Youre. If you have a favorite song, send it my way—I’m always up for a new recommendation.

My faith is important to me as well, and I believe in God.

I understand that my past may not be for everyone, but I hope you'll take the time to get to know me as a person rather than defining me entirely by my conviction. I’m trying to move forward and make the most of the person I am today.

If you’re looking for someone who can talk about motorcycles one minute, tattoos the next, and gaming or D&D after that, I’d love to hear from you. You never know where a simple conversation might lead.

You can reach me through Corrlinks Text Chat. If you use Corrlinks, you’ll first need to sign up at Corrlinks.com, add my institution and name under “Account Management,” and then download the Corrlinks Text Chat mobile app. I know they make the process a little complicated for Illinois inmates, but once you’re set up, it's pretty easy. Of course, good old-fashioned postal mail works too!
