About Me (the Econ side)

I work in economic consulting in San Francisco, providing financial analysis on commercial litigation matters. I graduated with High Honors from the University of California, Berkeley in 2023 with degrees in Economics, Cognitive Science, and Public Policy. I was a two-time winner of the Cal Alumni Leadership Award.

I founded “Artistry, Policy, & Entrepreneurship: Taylor’s Version” at UC Berkeley. The course received widespread media coverage, including a televised broadcast on CBS, and its curriculum has been presented at a number of venues, from a library district to a national convention.

Before joining the corporate world, I supplemented my academics with a variety of research endeavors. I worked in health economics at a healthcare policy center, dabbled in historical economics while interning at the Federal Reserve Board, and conducted a senior thesis on factors and policies affecting the United States homeownership rate.

About ME! (the Taylor side)

As a Swift educator and lifelong fan, I have firsthand experience of translating Swift's operations into teachable concepts. As a 23-year-old female in Swift's core listenership, I'm excited to meaningfully contribute to Swift scholarship, a realm that, like many others, would benefit from more young female voices.

For a bite-size version of my perspectives, my co-authored chapter is set to appear in a forthcoming collection entitled In the Swiftie Era, published by McFarland.

About Me (the Giving Everything side)

My work as a philanthropist has humbled me locally and globally. As a ballerina, I shared the love of expression with children in East Palo Alto, California, for many of whom it was their first exposure to the creative arts and being on stage. In Sofia, Bulgaria, I taught ballet to Syrian refugee children, whose innate joy was inspiring.

Becoming a cyclist, I discovered the bicycle as a tool of not only performance, but progress. I especially witnessed this while biking from Lusaka to Livingstone, meeting spirited Zambians whose lives and industries were impacted by the bicycles I helped distribute. I'm honored to be among a fierce cohort of female cyclists and advocates in World Bicycle Relief's Women on Wheels campaign.
