Crush It When You Communicate In Crowds, On Calls, On Camera & Any Circumstance With Taylor L. Cole Longacre

Taylor L. Cole Longacre, APR Taylor Cole Longacre has spent more than 14 years leading public relations and marketing for global brands like Hotels.com, ID90 Travel, Sabre, Expedia Group and Kimberly Clark. She’s the travel expert for broadcast TV and the syndicated radio program, Informed Traveler. She’s also the host of the business show, The Focus on Amazon Prime Video. Taylor starred in her first TV show, Street Talk, while in high school and produced and directed her first TV show, Boys Baseball Inc. during her freshman year of college. Taylor earned bachelors degrees in broadcast journalism, Radio/TV and sociology, and a graduate degree in law/conflict management dispute resolution from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. She's also accredited in public relations.

Taylor’s learned the hard way how to prepare organizations, execs and herself to have difficult conversations in public and in front of the camera. From her experience working with major travel brands as they grappled with 9/11, to handling company layoffs and fallouts, she’s identified ways that we can be authentic and on point no matter what questions or circumstances may come up. Her philosophy is, if you can manage the hard questions with confidence and panache, you can master the small chit chat, too. Taylor’s other role takes her traveling around the globe where she and her daredevil, ninja contenting husband Mike like to skydive, zip-line, compete in obstacle races and seek high points (rollercoasters, mountain tops, skyscrapers, and other nailbiters!).
