Welcome back to another captivating episode of the WGI Unleashed Podcast!

In our 79th episode, we dive into the noteworthy journey of Taylor Allen, PE, a Civil Market Leader from WGI's San Antonio, TX office.

So, grab your headphones and tune in as we explore Taylor's unique story, from his Texan roots to celebrating a decade of work with WGI.

Career and Education

Taylor, born and raised in San Antonio, TX, always dreamed of attending a big university.

Having grown up just outside of the University of Texas at Austin, it seemed like destiny that he would one day join the Longhorn Nation. Yet, it was actually Texas A&M University in College Station that Taylor ultimately fell in love with, where he spent four years and discovered his passion for "urban living," thus setting the stage for his future endeavors.

Upon graduation, however, Taylor's career took an unexpected turn as he explored a different field prior to pivoting back into the world of design. And with a hunger for growth paired with the goal of attaining a Professional Engineers License, Taylor sought a firm and mentor with the experience to support his growth both personally and professionally, which he ultimately found with WGI.

Now celebrating over 10 years with WGI, Taylor reflects on the growth, challenges, and successes of the past decade, with his commitment to making a positive impact on his hometown through his work serving as a testament to his passion for community growth and development.

Plus, you'll have to tune in to find out if he's experienced the thrill of hot air balloon rides or hiked in and out of the Grand Canyon!
