Taylor was born and raised in DFW and returned to Dallas after finishing college where he met his wife Lindsey. Before coming to St Rita's, he helped build and develop programs at an indoor ropes course in Carrolton, taught middle school English in South Korea, and worked locally as a software developer. He enjoys roasting coffee, reading the Church Fathers, relaxing with his family, and most things outdoors (especially biking, rock climbing, and post-workout burritos).
