Trevor was born in Amarillo, Texas, on November 16, 1976. From the time his dad introduced him to a rope he knew he wanted to be a rodeo cowboy. His parents Jimmy and Glenda were both champion ropers. It was in his blood to be great.

Then you get off of your horse run down the rope and tie 3 of the steer’s legs together. Jimmy was considered to be one of the best in the business.
Trevor went to college at the Vernon Texas Regional Junior College earning his associate's degree in arts and sciences. He attended on a rodeo scholarship. After he finished at West Vernon, he transferred to West Texas A&M University. Trevor left West Texas A&M in 1996 before he graduated so that he could compete full time in the Pro Rodeo Cowboy Association (PRCA).
