Originally from Texas, Taylor spent the formative years of her childhood in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and Kuwait City, Kuwait where her parents helped to develop education initiatives in those nations.

Taylor’s interest in public policy ignited in high school when she traveled from the UAE, to Washington, D.C., attending conferences focusing on global initiatives. Taylor parlayed that passion into working on both a successful gubernatorial race in college and running the field office for the United States Senate race in Tennessee.

Passionate about the impact of sports on society, Taylor interned for an event management company working with events surrounding the 2012 Olympics in London and was also an intern with the 2013 Super Bowl in New Orleans.

A two-time Tennessee Volunteer, Taylor received both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Tennessee - Knoxville. Taylor spent the last seven years working in alumni/donor relations and public relations focusing on education, policy, and veteran’s initiatives.

Taylor serves on the board of advisors for the Howard H. Baker Jr. Center for Public Policy, the D.C. chapter of the Tennessee alumni board, Land Grant Films, and is a member of the Junior League of Washington, D.C.
