Traylor graduated from Missouri State University, Springfield, with a degree in marketing with an emphasis on advertising and promotions.

Traylor also co-founded - and serves on the Board of Directors for - The Joshua Chamberlain Society, a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to aid wounded or fallen military heroes and their families.
