Jacquelyn Taylor, PhD, PNP-BC, RN, FAHA, FAAN is a content expert and nationally recognized health equity scholar. Her professional experiences mentoring individuals, serving as Associate Dean of Diversity at Yale and Director of the Center on Precision Health in Diverse Populations, and assisting universities and academic departments in weaving health equity into the strategic planning process led her to establish Taylor Professional Coaching, LLC (TPC).

Dr. Taylor is Endowed Professor and founding Executive Director of the Center for Research on People of Color at Columbia University, one of the youngest members of the National Academy of Medicine, and the first Black woman to earn tenure through the ranks at Yale University and Columbia University. She advises medical and allied health institutions to increase focus on diversity and health equity in terms of building research expertise, co-writing NIH Center grants and envisioning modes of support for underrepresented minorities. Dr. Taylor currently leads a portfolio of research, education and training grants totaling more than $10 million in funding from federal, foundation and other sources.

Her professional accomplishments and passion for coaching inspired Dr. Taylor to help others achieve their own successes. She enjoys that, through TPC, she can support individuals and institutions as they envision and create strategies to advance careers and enrich work environments.
