Having grown up in a family steeped in the arts, Taylor’s original plan was to pursue a degree in theatre. As the son of a drama teacher and community theatre actress, he began acting and singing at the age of six. While at Florida State University, Taylor sang in an acapella group, where he met his fiancé. These days, he’s more apt to go for a run, read about history, watch the latest movies and cheer on the Patriots, but he won’t shy away from a mic if given the opportunity.
