Taylor currently leads our Lehigh Valley homeschool PE programs, directs summer camps, and is the assistant director of PTR’s volleyball club. He also teaches PE at our partner school CAI Learning Academy.  

Taylor graduated from Maranatha Baptist University with a degree in sports management in 2020 .  He returned to Maranatha Baptist for another year to start on his Master’s and to play on the men’s volleyball team. He also served as the assistant women’s volleyball coach. Taylor also plays on several semi-professional soccer league teams.

Throughout Taylor’s college career, his love and passion for learning, playing, and coaching volleyball have grown year after year. He has a desire to continue his coaching career through Push The Rock while working other sports programs as the Sports Ministry Associate.
