Veronica Taylor brings more than 15 years of experience in education, nonprofit development, and community engagement to her role as Philanthropy Director at Giraffe Laugh Early Learning Centers.
A Boise transplant by way of Las Vegas, Veronica earned her degree in Performing Arts from Boise State University, with an emphasis in theater performance and design.
Her career began in the classroom and on the stage, where she spent over a decade working with children and families as both an educator and administrator. As the Director of Education at
Idaho Shakespeare Festival, she led a statewide education program that reached forty thousand students annually, managed a large teaching staff, and built lasting relationships with parents, schools, and community partners.
Veronica later transitioned into nonprofit development, driven by a desire to expand the impact of the programs she cared about. She served as Director of Development at Ballet Idaho and
most recently as Donor Engagement Manager at Idaho Shakespeare Festival, where she combined her strengths in storytelling, relationship-building, and fundraising to inspire support and foster community.
Now at Giraffe Laugh, Veronica is thrilled to bring her passion for education full circle. She’s especially inspired by Giraffe Laugh’s commitment to ensuring every child has access to quality early learning, and every parent feels supported and seen.
