Personal Life
Tayla was raised by her grandmother who eventually became her caregiver, as her grandmother was diagnosed with ALS in 2016. Tayla met a great physiatrist through the care of her grandmother, and that is how she was first introduced to the specialty. She states that is one of the reasons why she is particularly excited to be working with Revive.
In her free time, Tayla loves spending time with friends and family, shopping at Target, cooking, and trying new restaurants.
