Elizabeth joined Disney Television Animation in 2010 as an Executive Assistant on the Development team. As the studio grew, she grew within the team by stepping into coordinator and then manager of development roles, where she supported projects, took pitches, and built relationships within the animation community.

As a Director and Executive Director of Development, she shepherded a steady stream of projects through development, including the acclaimed cartoon shorts, The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse, the Emmy-nominated series Kiff and Amphibia, the recently released Primos and Zombies: The Re-Animated Series, and StuGo.

She began her career at the Nickelodeon Animation Studio in 2004, working in production, and briefly worked outside the entertainment industry as an independent event planner.

A native of East Syracuse, New York, Taylor has a BA in film studies from Emerson College.

She loves overpriced coffee, ballet class, sci-fi movies, children’s books, Beethoven, Picasso, Agatha Christie novels, and (most of all) her husband and partner in crime. Her famous name is his fault, but she decided he was worth it.
