My name is Payton Taylor. I have a half-brother and a half-sister who are 5 and 2. My mom and Dad divorced when I was three, but I don't let it keep me from living my life. My mom, now, is a stay-at-home mom, but she used to run an antique mall. My father works for a roofing company called "Andrew's". My stepdad, Jim, is a police officer. I live the life of any normal teenager going through the struggles that life shoves in our faces.I play many sports that my school puts on, and also sports that other coorporations put on. My family helps me get through the stuff I struggle through and for that I thank them. Acting, my life-term goal, is everything to me. I love how in theatre, you can be anything you want to be and imagine whatever. It's absolutely amazing. I also get a great education and am in the advanced program. I participate in many after-school activities such as Stars Club, Drama Club, Environmental Club, Math Club, Quick Recall, Pep-Band, Jazz Band, and many, many others. I am also in the school band. I play the french horn and sit in 1st chair, like I have for 3 years straight. My life isn't perfect, but I love it and everyone in it, and I'm going to keep doing what I love to do; act.
