In Taylor's words...

Taylor Kerere What do you like most about working at Fairmont State?  What I enjoy most is the people I work with. Being able to build genuine friendships at work makes such a difference in your day-to-day. I’m really lucky to be surrounded by such supportive and positive people—everyone is always willing to help each other out.

What do you like to do in your free time? I love spending time with my friends and family, whether that’s just hanging out, going out to eat, or planning little trips together. In my downtime, I’m usually listening to music, scrolling social media, or just relaxing and recharging.

Where are you originally from?  I’m from Barrackville, which is about 10 minutes from campus.

If money was no object, what would you do with it?  I would definitely be front row at every Taylor Swift concert. I’ve already seen her six times, and if I could, I’d go to every show.

What did you want to be when you were growing up? Growing up, I wanted to be a celebrity. I had no idea what I wanted to be famous for—I just knew I wanted to be famous.

What is an interesting or fun fact about yourself? A fun fact about me is that I coach middle school volleyball. I played throughout middle and high school, and I got the opportunity to start coaching about a year after I graduated. I’ve loved it ever since.
