Taylor focuses on healthcare regulatory matters.
Taylor’s interest in law was sparked while on the high school debate team, where she appreciated the challenge of understanding both sides of an argument. Her passion for learning, combined with her desire to facilitate compromise in divisive times, drove her to pursue a legal career. She sees the law as an ever-evolving landscape that offers endless learning opportunities and the chance to be a force for positive change.
During law school, Taylor’s internship with the U.S. Attorney’s Office shaped her perspective on healthcare law, particularly around the sensitive area of substance use treatment records. It was there that she realized her calling was on the regulatory side, preferring proactive measures over reactive ones.
While in law school, Taylor connected with courses on health information confidentiality, security, and mental health law. Her work with a health law professor on HIPAA student treatment records not only enhanced her understanding but showcased her knack for detailed research.
