About Allen Taylor
Words are my best friends, ideas my health food, and success my fitness plan. I yearn to run with the greatest minds on the planet, and, quite often, I do.
My name is Allen Taylor, chief content officer at Taylored Content. I’ve operated in two key areas for most of my life:
- Writing
- Leadership
An award-winning journalist, I’ve been recognized for news and headline writing, sports writing, and column and editorial writing, but I’m most proud of the three accolades I’ve received from the Dallas Bar Association for excellence in legal reporting. These were for ongoing series of stories I wrote about specific legal issues in the state of Texas.
