Taylor Headshot

Who is Taylor C. Bailey?

I'm an engineering manager at West Pharmaceutical Services, freelance videographer, and author of A Renaissance of Locks and The Acacia Records (still working on that one). I also love to rock climb, play softball, mountain bike, hunt, camp, and work on my house. This site is just a way to showcase what I'm working on as well as share some of my thoughts on various topics that interest me. Enjoy.
