Taylor is a 19-year-old writer and author of Hidden in My Heart: A TCK’s Journey Through Cultural Transition.

When she was sixteen-years-old, she applied for a writing residency for the annual conference, Families in Global Transition. In exchange for an eight week mentoring process with the expat editor Jo Parfitt, she was required to attend FIGT to cover sessions and then write articles about them. The experience was a wonderful opportunity for learning and growth. Her blog was an outcome of the project. Since then, she’s written for expat and TCK-focused, print and online magazines.
