He earned his degree in Economics with a minor in Chemistry from BYU Idaho before attending dental school at Loma Linda University in Southern California. Throughout his career, he has developed a deep appreciation for patient-centered care, ensuring that each individual feels heard, respected, and well cared for.
Originally from Seattle, Washington, Dr. Taylor grew up surrounded by mountains, water, and evergreen trees, which inspired a lifelong love for the outdoors. His fondest memories include fishing trips, family hikes, and time spent in nature an appreciation he now shares with his own family.
Dr. Taylor met his wife, Sarah, while they were both in college. They are now the proud parents of two daughters, Reese and Lainey, who bring joy and energy to their lives. As a family, they enjoy outdoor adventures, playing games, and spontaneous ice cream outings. A proud Eagle Scout, Dr. Taylor values community service and has participated in dental mission trips to rural Mexico and underserved areas in Los Angeles. He looks forward to continuing to give back through his work.
Above all, Dr. Taylor is grateful to be part of the Waterford community. He believes that dentistry is about more than just teeth, it’s about trust, connection, and helping people feel confident in their smiles. He is excited to be a part of each patient’s dental journey.
