| Scott Traylor [Senior Student '79-'82, Faculty '83-'85, Board '09] is the founder and CEO of 360KID, an education-technology company that designs products aimed to teach as well as entertain. "I can sincerely tell you that EVERYTHING I do in my business can be tied back to my experience with Explo," Scott wrote to us in an email. "I was not a fan of school, but realized through Explo that I am excited about learning many things in the world that my middle and high school experience just couldn't provide."
Over the last two decades, as 360KID has become a leader in its field, Scott and the company have worked with Nickelodeon, the Discovery Channel, Pokemon, PBSkids, Highlights magazine, and Sesame Street, among many, many others. In 2008, Scott received the high honor of being named the Association of Educational Publishers (AEP) Member of the Year.
