Executive
Casey Taylor. Vice president of development for the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation, based in Tampa. Taylor has been with the organization for about a year, after a decade of working in a host of other fields. An attorney, Taylor worked for a law firm in Orlando early in her career. She later worked in insurance, with BKS Partners in Tampa. “I was going to go into environmental law,” she says. “I was gonna be the next Erin Brockovich.”
In between insurance and law, Taylor found her passion in nonprofits, working with the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Tampa Bay, the Florida Aquarium, the Center for Great Apes in Wauchula and the International Primate Protection League, first based in South Carolina and later back in Tampa.
