Meet Bining Taylor: Director of Admissions and Operations, professional multitasker, and your go-to guru for community building! Born and bred in the bustling concrete jungle of New York City, Bining traded bagels for breakfast tacos in Austin, TX, in 2006. She soon discovered that community building wasn’t just her leisure pursuit—it was her calling.

With a certificate of Finance and Accounting from Harvard Business School and a degree in Film and Cultural Anthropology from the State University of New York at Purchase, Bining originally envisioned a life among reel-to-reel film and anthropological curiosities. But, as fate would have it, she found herself discovering the Whole Life Learning Center in 2016. What began as a parent’s journey quickly evolved into a full-fledged passion project when Bining joined the team as Office Manager in 2017. Her knack for creating connections and her flair for organizing soon made her the perfect candidate to step into the role of Director of Admissions in 2018.

Bining’s secret sauce? A blend of heartfelt community spirit, stellar organizational skills, and an unshakable dedication to making meaningful interpersonal connections and creating experiences for our student body. She’s not just a staff member; she’s a loving parent and force of nature ensuring that the Whole Life Learning Center isn’t just a place of learning, but a thriving, vibrant community.

When she’s not busy with admissions and operations, you might find Bining perfecting her event planning prowess, curating Art events, screen writing or copywriting for her Emmy-winning Family Production Company. In every role she tackles, her goal remains the same: to foster a sense of connection, growth, and fellowship that extends far beyond the office walls.
