Amy Taylor has had an eventful couple of years.That’s true for most of us, pandemic and all, but Taylor’s list is likely longer. The Columbus Downtown Development Corp., where she serves as president, embarked on one of its most ambitious projects ever, the $500 million multi-phase redevelopment of the Scioto Peninsula.Then Covid-19 struck, sending workers home and raising questions about the future of the downtown area the organization works to keep vibrant.And amid all that, Taylor herself was hit with a cancer diagnosis.In the latest episode of our Women of Influence podcast, Taylor talked about how her loaded work schedule served as a “respite” from the shock to her personal life, as well as what she’s most excited about downtown today.Mentioned in this episode:Let Crate Media help uncover your company's story and amplify your messaging with a branded podcast.
