Travis Goodman

Travis grew up in a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it town somewhere in Colorado, one of those places where everyone knows your middle name and which dog you walked last Sunday. His parents, Ron and Deb, probably expected the usual—baseball, maybe some fishing, definitely not jazz hands and show tunes. But then high school rolled around and, surprise, Travis jumped headfirst into the school production of “Annie.” That’s right, the musical. Suddenly, instead of touchdowns, there were curtain calls. That little taste of the spotlight? Yeah, it stuck. College came next, and Travis went all-in, snagging a BA in Theatre. He even tried his hand at an MFA in acting—turns out, grad school in Ohio wasn’t his idea of a good time. Who can blame him? Snow, endless lectures, and, let’s be real, not exactly the epicenter of showbiz. So, he ditched the Midwest and made a beeline for Los Angeles. Landing in LA, Travis swapped cornfields for palm trees and started chasing roles instead of grades. The grind wasn’t easy (is it ever?), but he had the guts and stubbornness to keep pushing. From tiny theater gigs to auditions that went nowhere, he kept showing up. That small-town kid with big dreams? He’s out there, hustling in the city where everyone’s got a script in their back pocket and hopes higher than a Hollywood billboard.
