A redhead who hails from Kentucky, Taylor Coriell is a bicoastal writer, director, and award-winning filmmaker addicted to stories about the people and places that make you feel at home with yourself, through the lens of ladycentric dramedies, buddy comedies, and rom coms.

She was most recently featured on The Stunt List x The Naughty List 2023!

The first season of her digital series, You're The Pest, made a highly successful run of the 2018-2019 international festival circuit, collecting awards and nominations for Best Acting, Best Ensemble, Best Writing, Best Comedy, and Best of The Fests along the way. 

Taylor most recently served as the producer's assistant on S2 of Hulu's Life & Beth. Taylor is a member of NYWIFT, Ghetto Film Roster, The Alliance for Women in Media, and Big Vision, Empty Wallet's Kickstart Diversity incubator. Taylor also volunteers for Fair Fight Action, Hood To The Holler, and NYC Parks’ Tree Stewardship Program.

A former figure skater, recovering opera singer, and full-time pal, Taylor would love to talk about your favorite period piece, whether or not LA can one day provide her with a *actual* bagel, or even hear if you have a theory about why Barack Obama follows her on Twitter (yes, still).
