Lauren Taylor
What High School do you attend?
North Gwinnett
Please tell us a little bit about your family.
I am the oldest of 3 girls and my two little sisters are twins. The older twin, Ava, is a cheerleader and the younger one, Alexis, is a softball player. Both of them swim with me on our summer league swim team. My mom has been very involved in the community since I can remember and volunteers with the Gwinnett County Swim League as the President. She puts together the whole season for the summer league teams in Gwinnett as well as the county meet held at Georgia Tech at the end of the season. My dad works mostly from home, but tracked some and is very involved in my sister’s softball team. I look up to all of them because of how their drive to help others and volunteer to see how it benefits those around us is so inspirational.
What are your plans after graduation?
I plan to attend the University of Kentucky and receive a Doctorate for Pediatric Physical Therapy.
What are two of your favorite restaurants in our community?
Chick-fil-a and Taco Mac
If you could travel anywhere in the world right now, where would it be and why?
I would travel to Bora-Bora because I love the the beach and I’ve always wanted to stay in a tiki hut over the crystal blue water.
What is one of your favorite movies? TV shows?
Tangled or Grey’s Anatomy
If you were asked to give advice to your senior class and the younger students at your school, what would you say?
I would tell them to never take anything for granted. From us seniors about to graduate to those who have lost their lives recently due to reckless driving, you never know how fast time flies when you take things for granted. Personally, I am so incredibly excited to start the new chapter of my life, but I am not ready to leave all my friends I’ve grown up with as well as the friends you aren’t super close with but pass them in the hall and give them a smile. You go through so many phases during your life and people come and go but cherish every single one of those moments with those around you.
If you were able to be cast as yourself into a television show or series, what show would you want to be in?
Outer Banks
If you could choose anyone to have lunch with, who would you choose? Why? And where, locally, would you meet for this lunch?
I would go to lunch with my Grandma, we call her Gamma, because I don’t see her as often as I used to and I miss her. We would probably eat at Two Cities because their pizza is very good and then get some type of ice cream after because she always used to take me and my sisters out to get a treat after dinner.
What is your favorite thing about our community?
How involved everyone is
Where do you see yourself in 5 to 10 years?
I would have just graduated college and probably started out on my first job.
What is something on your bucket list?
To see the floating lanterns
What is your go to band / singer when you can’t decide what to listen to?
Morgan Wallen
Favorite month? favorite holiday? and best single day on the calendar?
My favorite month is either June or July because it’s the summer time and it’s warm out. My favorite holiday is the 4th of July because for a couple of years now my family and friends always go to E.E. Robins and watch the fireworks on the baseball field and just getting to be around people is so much fun, but I honestly like all the holidays except Valentine’s day. The best single day on the calendar is May 24th because that’s when I graduate!
Who inspires you to be better?
My parents
