Hi, I’m Taylor—a storyteller, driven by detail and visual narrative.
With a strong background in film production and advertising. I’ve also assisted live-action producers and taken on associate producer roles in commercial and branded content.
I was recently featured in Ad Age’s “21 Summer Ad Interns You Should Know About.”
FEATURED PROJECTProfessor of Rocks
Lawford Anderson is an inspiring environmental science educator who has dedicated his professional career to shape the next generation of changemakers.
Known throughout both Boston University and USC, he immerses his students in nature while teaching them about the world around us and how to navigate the lingering threat of climate change.
The Conception of the Idea
I came up with the idea for The Professor of Rocks on the first day of my earth science class, a course I took just to fulfill a science credit as a film major. I wasn’t expecting much, but when I walked into class, I met the kindest, most passionate man I’d ever seen talk about the environment—Professor Lawford Anderson. I knew I wanted to create a meaningful project that semester about the environment, but I realized the story wasn’t about the earth itself. It was about Professor Anderson’s love for his students and his passion for immersing them in the world around them.
The Process of Filmmaking
I got lucky with the seamless teamwork I had within my group for this project. We played to each other’s strengths and shared a collaborative vision that everyone respected. I was excited to see my partners’ beautiful cinematography and sound design bring the project to life. This was great practice for me as a leader. It’s easy to get lost in someone else’s vision in film school, but this was the most trust I’d ever had in a group—and the most they had in me. That trust showed in the final product. For this project I directed, edited and contributed some cinematography.
