She holds a Bachelor of Science in Forensic Science and a Master of Science in Cellular and Molecular Biology from the University of New Haven, providing her with a strong foundation in both scientific theory and applied research. Her academic background allows her to bring real-world relevance and depth to the study of biology, helping students connect classroom learning to practical applications.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌​​‍‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍‍‌‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌​​‍‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌​‍‌‌​​​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‍‌​‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‌​​‍‌‌‍‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‍‍​​‍‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‌‌​‍​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‍​‍‌​‌‌​‍‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍​‌‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‍​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍‌‌

As an educator, Ms. Taylor is dedicated to fostering a genuine love of learning while guiding students toward a strong and lasting understanding of biological concepts. She recognizes that every student is unique and approaches learning in different ways. With this in mind, she is committed to creating an inclusive, engaging, and supportive classroom environment where students feel confident asking questions, taking intellectual risks, and exploring new ideas. Through hands-on activities, thoughtful discussions, and individualized guidance, she encourages students to become active participants in their own learning.

Ms. Taylor strongly believes in the value of active learning and personalized instruction. She works closely with each student to identify strengths, address challenges, and develop effective learning strategies that support academic growth. Her goal is not only to help students succeed in biology but also to equip them with critical thinking skills, curiosity, and confidence that will serve them well across all areas of study. Ms. Taylor is proud to be a founding member of BASIS Independent Dublin.

Outside of the classroom, Ms. Taylor enjoys spending time with family and friends, exploring the outdoors through hiking, and traveling. These interests allow her to recharge and bring fresh perspectives and enthusiasm back to her work with students.
