Hi! I’m Avy Taylor.

I’m a marketing professional based out of Dallas, Texas. Above all, I am a performer: a comedian, a clown, a violinist, and a former pageant queen.

My performance background is essential to my marketing. After years on stage, I know what makes people tick. I know what makes them smile, know how to develop trust, and know what kind of media and messaging people want to consume.

Community Advocacy Work

Serving as Miss Fort Worth 2025 and Miss Lewisville 2024 were two of the most important jobs I have ever had in my life.

Growing up in North Texas, I experienced firsthand the mental health and suicide crisis. By the time that I graduated high school, I had already attended three wakes for local students lost to suicide. When I chose to become a titleholder in the Miss America system, I knew that I wanted to advocate for suicide prevention education and equitable access to mental health resources.

In 2025, I founded Hope’s Toolbox, a nonprofit dedicated to addressing the youth mental health crisis in Texas. Through my nonprofit, I designed and delivered educational programming to hundreds of students across North Texas, spoke at national conferences, and advocated for mental health legislation through meetings with state senators. I also am involved with the National Stuttering Foundation and WeStutter, where I work to empower people to stutter proudly.

I have received Macy’s Mission EveryONE Champion of Youth Award, the President’s Volunteer Service Award Gold Medal for 250+ hours of community service, and a Top 15 placement at the Miss Texas 2025 competition. My activism has been featured by Fort Worth Weekly, the National Stuttering Foundation, the University of Texas at Dallas Alumni Center, and more.
