Taylor Ford, MSIDD

Before joining the University of Maryland, I worked in consulting as a Scrum Master, partnering with the VA to help teams streamline workflows, overcome obstacles, and strengthen collaboration. That experience gave me the opportunity to work with diverse groups of people and make a real impact across projects and teams.

Originally from The Bronx, NY, I earned both my B.S. in Public Health and M.S. in Instructional Design, Development, and Evaluation from Syracuse University, where I attended on a Division I athletic scholarship.

Fun Fact: I previously worked at UMD as an Athletic Academic Intern in 2018 — and after graduation, I took my talents overseas to play professional basketball in Lisbon, Portugal!
