Always, always wanted to, you know, work within the Nine Network and the TV industry.
And I just look up to absolutely everyone around me and just worship the ground they walk on.
So I knew straight away, it's like coming out of the womb.
I just knew I wanted to be at Nine.
I wanted to be in the TV industry.
They're the best and they're very respected in the industry.
My dad started out as a cameraman on the Today Show.
Is this not crazy?
Just a full circle moment.
So he was a cameraman on the Today Show.
My mum was in radio and then dad went on to do breakfast radio for 30 plus years.
Mum's in the producing world, produces the biggest sporting events around the country.
So I'm very, very lucky to have such good mentors, but at the same time also keep me grounded and composed.
And really, I just want to make them proud.
I remember in primary school, we'd have to answer questions of, you know, what do you want to be when you grow up?
And I'd say, I want to be in TV.
And I remember one of my school teachers saying, okay, Taylor, come on, you need to pick a real job.
And I remember turning to her saying, watch me.
Watch me.
I couldn't imagine myself doing anything else.
