Welcome!

My name is Taylor Moore. I'm an award-winning multimedia journalist. I currently work as a On-Camera News Reporter for Biohack Yourself Media and as Assistant Editor for Peninsula Publishing. 

At Peninsula Publishing, I write and edit multiple feature-length stories on tight deadlines for a national B2B homebuilding magazine publication. I assist and contribute to the production of four  magazines: Builder and Developer, Green Home Builder, Residential Contractor and American Infrastructure. 

At Biohack Yourself Media, I pitch, shoot, write and edit stories on the latest health and wellness news. I also cover health and fitness events as an on-camera, field reporter in Los Angeles and Orange County.

I previously led my campus news outlets as Editor-in-Chief of the Campus Times Newspaper, worked as an on-air radio personality for 107.9 LeoFM and was an anchor/reporter for the University's broadcast network, Foothill Community News.

Taylor’s creamy pesto pasta topped with honey glazed salmon

Do you see how much seasoning there is? Make sure you cover the salmon in the seasonings from head to toe. I always disclose that I never measure my seasonings. I use my boyfriend as my handy-dandy taste-tester. If he tells me it needs more flavor, then I add more. So go ahead and use the test-taste method. If you think it needs a little more spice, don’t be shy to add more, flavor never hurt anyone.
Set your salmon aside because it’s time to jump back to our pasta. You’re going to be doing a...

Getting into the spooky season spirit with Taylor!

Sept. 29 marked the first day of fall, which means we’re officially in the spooky season. This is my favorite time of year — pumpkin spice, the chilly breeze (well about as chilly as Southern California can get), the Halloween decor and so much more. I’ve always been in love with fall, so I make it a point every year to indulge in my favorite holiday as much as possible.
I’m not calling myself a spooky expert by no means, but I’ve managed to put together quite the fall itinerary over the years....
