Taylor is a passionate advocate, marathon runner, and proud mum of two. With over 20 years of experience in the beauty and wellness industry, Taylor is the co-owner of Retreat Hair Spa; a membership-based hair salon on the NSW Central Coast.
Taylor experienced her first grand mal seizure at the age of 11. Initially told she had “grown out of it,” her epilepsy returned two decades later, and she has been navigating its challenges, triggers, and treatment ever since. Having also witnessed her younger brother’s journey through epilepsy for more than a decade, Taylor brings a deeply personal perspective to her advocacy.
She has proudly raised thousands of dollars for Epilepsy Action Australia through her marathon efforts; including the Sydney and Gold Coast Marathons, and is now training for her first ultramarathon.
As an ambassador, Taylor is dedicated to raising awareness, breaking stigma, and supporting people living with epilepsy across Australia and beyond. She lives by the belief that with purpose and persistence, you can achieve anything you set your mind to.
