Q&A with Taylor
What has been your biggest accomplishment?
One of my biggest accomplishments has been joining the leadership team at KWSM. Managing a team, training our staff, and sharing my knowledge, both about KWSM and our industry, is something I am immensely passionate about. I am honored to have made a mark on our agency and to be a part of what we are building here.
What is the best part of working at KWSM?
Professional growth is not just an opportunity in our industry, it is essential to be successful. KWSM affords all of us the tools and resources for continued learning, even as our industry changes. With a hunger for knowledge, there is endless opportunity for growth.
Where do you see yourself headed in the future?
I am eager to see where our industry is in 5 years, and in 10 years. I am always interested in what is working for businesses and what vehicles are best used to tell their stories. That’s why I love what I do. As our industry grows, and we grow with it, I look forward to leading a bigger team with the wide variety of skills and experiences that they bring.

“Taylor has been a mentor from my very first day at KWSM. She’s inspired me to continue to push through challenges and helped me see the bigger picture when my focus was too narrow. And she played a huge role in encouraging me to pursue my current role as Senior Digital Marketing Strategist! She is always willing to jump in and support any way that she can – whether that’s taking a project off your plate, helping you find resources, or just being a listening ear, Taylor always makes herself available. This has inspired me to prioritize being a valuable resource for my team members as well. She truly helps lead our culture of collaboration. I know I can always go to her when I need help prioritizing what’s most important or need guidance on how to communicate clearly. All of our clients know they can depend on Taylor. She comes prepared with ideas, solutions, and passion for our clients and their goals.”
