ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Jordan Taylor, I am originally from Los Angeles, U.S.A. but am currently living in Sydney, Australia and Chicago, IL working in the creative field.

I retired as a professional athlete in 2022, playing in Orlando, Florida, Tokyo, Japan, and Perth, Australia after graduating from the University of Michigan as a part of the highly acclaimed Michigan Softball team.

In between softball seasons, I worked as a freelance graphic designer and illustrator in an effort to remain creative since I was unable to pursue a career in the arts while playing. After retiring, I made the decision to move to Sydney to attend Australian Film, Television, and Radio School (AFTRS) and study production design. I recently graduated with a Masters of Arts in Production Design and was lucky to be a part of many amazing projects over the last 2 years, including Withered Blossoms (2024) which was selected in the La Cinef at Cannes Film Festival.

I am excited to enter the industry in set decoration, props, graphic design or costume department. I bring a wealth of experience in teamwork, effective communication, and endurance from my athletic days, along with a variety of art skills from costume making and scenic painting to drafting and graphic design. I am a quick study, hard worker, extremely coachable, always keen to learn new things, always prompt, good at anticipating the needs of others, and a creative problem-solver.
