JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Taylor Levesque joined the First Coast News Team in July 2022 as a multi-skilled journalist.
Taylor grew up in St. Petersburg and earned bachelor's degrees in Telecommunication and Criminology from the University of Florida.
After college, she took a cross-country road trip west to California to begin her career at KERO in Bakersfield, California. There, she covered crime, the 'Bakersfield 3' trial and arraignment hearings, politics, and community-based stories as a multimedia journalist.
Her favorite memories of living in California were when she was an audience member of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Dr. Phil, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Late Show with James Corden, and the Billboard Music Awards.
Taylor is excited to be back in Florida and is looking forward to exploring Jacksonville, spending time at the beach, and finding the best food in town (recommendations always welcome).
