Taylor Upright

"The man who says he can and the man who says he can't are both correct."
-Confucius

The first time Taylor got into an airplane, he jumped out of it.

Up to that point, his 18th birthday, he had an intense fear of flying. Both to conquer the fear and celebrate his milestone, Taylor took the incautious action of leaping out of a perfectly functional vehicle travelling hundreds of miles an hour, thousands of feet in the air. 

He rates the experience highly. 

That leap exemplifies a lifelong trend. Both personally, and professionally, Taylor seeks a good challenge. As a child, watching the Harlem Globetrotters spin, throw and manipulate a basketball like magic inspired him to learn to spin a basketball on all his fingers (Side Note: We probably need to keep a basketball in the office so he can demonstrate on demand). His last task at work each day is to try and beat Nathan’s high score on our mini basketball game (Good luck on that!). His favorite office accessory is our golf simulator where he’s always looking to improve. Taylor seeks challenges, and he beats them. 

After studying Business Administration at UNCW, Taylor managed video production and social media for ecommerce businesses. He’s grown accounts from single digits to hundreds of thousands using both user-generated content and original videos. Taylor brings community and authenticity to social media channels, raising reputations and driving conversions. He’s driven by the challenge of creating a positive impact for clients. 

Office guard dog, Bunni, has given Taylor her stamp of approval, so we’re sure he’s a good egg (it has nothing to do with bribery through treats…Bunni is incorruptible).
