My name is Taylor Caldwell. The origin of my name was argued between both of my parents constantly. My father insisted I was named after the author, Taylor Caldwell. However, my mother argued that I was named after eighties pop artist, Taylor Dayne. (If you don't know the song "Tell it to My Heart" please go look it up.) Either way, I was born with the name of a creator.
Since childhood I have been interested in visual arts. When I was growing up I was always holding mini productions with family and friends. My favorite were the "weather reports" that more or less ended with me dumping a small bucket of water on my sister. Growing up behind and in front of cameras it was only natural that this continued into high school where I was one of the editors for the weekly news broadcast. After high school I continued this passion into college where I received a number of awards for my journalistic and film pieces.
Most recently, I worked as a Marketing Coordinator for an industrial heating, cutting and welding company. I've just left a position as Marketing Coordinator at a lab equipment company and looking for the place where I finally land.
