Taylor is an actress, director, and dancer from Frisco, Texas, with a lifelong love of storytelling. Her passion began with childhood living room “productions” for her family. By age 3, she was formally training in various dance styles before discovering acting in a middle school theatre class. Although she once planned to pursue law, theatre quickly became her calling, eventually leading her to AMDA. Taylor aims to contribute to a richer representation of Black women, like those who paved the way before her.
