Scott Taylor, Principal - The Taylor Company

A native, third-generation Floridian, founder and principal Scott Taylor is a public relations veteran who has consulted a diverse group of clients, from the world's largest consumer products corporations to nationally-recognized non-profit organizations. His career has enabled him to gain experience in the country's most creative, competitive markets: Washington, D.C., New York, and Los Angeles.

Scott earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Studies and International Business from The American University in Washington, D.C. He remained in Washington after school, gaining experience with one of the city's most influential boutique public relations agencies, Viator Associates.

In New York, Scott held management positions at two of the city's leading independent public relations firms: Makovsky & Company, and Brown & Powers Associates, Inc. During this time, he helped to create and implement communications initiatives on behalf of clients in several categories, including public service programs on various consumer health topics.

Immediately prior to returning to Florida, Scott worked in Los Angeles where, as a supervisor at global public relations firm Manning Selvage & Lee (MS&L), he managed a variety of corporate, consumer product and public affairs accounts.

Since returning to Florida, Scott has made it his mission to support progressive causes and issues by working almost exclusively with nonprofit organizations.

Scott is a former president of the Tampa Bay Chapter of the Florida Public Relations Association. Other professional memberships include the Public Relations Society of America, the International Association of Business Communicators, the Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce, the Clearwater Regional Chamber of Commerce and the Tampa Bay Business Guild.
