# Meet Taylor Hinke: Bringing Fresh Energy to Our California Team
We're thrilled to introduce Taylor Hinke, who recently joined Tangram's California team as a Sales Executive. With her impressive background in training and communications, Taylor brings a unique perspective to commercial interior design.
## From Corporate Training to Design Solutions
Taylor comes to us from the health and wellness industry, where she served as Field Training & Communication Manager for a network marketing company. In that role, she managed training programs for an impressive salesforce of 300,000 people—experience that speaks to her ability to communicate complex ideas clearly and build meaningful relationships at scale.
"I'm excited to learn about the furniture industry and help clients create their dream working environments," Taylor shares. "I hope to use my relationship building and communication skills to help positively represent Tangram to new and existing clients."
## Getting to Know Taylor
Originally from Mission Viejo, Taylor now calls Downtown LA home. When she's not helping clients transform their workspaces, you'll likely find her exploring the city's vibrant restaurant scene or hitting the trails for a good hike.
Her friends describe her as loyal, caring, and sassy—qualities that translate well to building trust with clients and bringing authenticity to every interaction. And if Hollywood ever makes a movie about her life? Taylor thinks a young Julia Louis-Dreyfus might be the perfect casting choice.
## A Day in the Life
Taylor has discovered something interesting about her productivity patterns: if she tackles a chore first thing in the morning, her entire day flows more smoothly. Otherwise, she finds her sweet spot in the afternoons, especially when working toward a deadline—even if that deadline is just getting dinner on the table.
Weekends find Taylor spending quality time with family and friends, getting outdoors, or discovering new culinary gems around LA. It's this balance of relationship-building and exploration that she brings to her work with Tangram's clients.
## What This Means for Our Clients
Taylor's background in large-scale training and communication positions her uniquely to understand the complexities of modern workplaces. She knows that creating effective work environments isn't just about furniture—it's about understanding how people work, collaborate, and thrive.
Her experience managing communications for hundreds of thousands of people gives her insight into the challenges organizations face when implementing change, whether that's a complete office redesign or simply refreshing a workspace to better serve evolving needs.
We're excited to see how Taylor's fresh perspective and relationship-building expertise will benefit both new and existing clients as they navigate their commercial design journeys. Welcome to the team, Taylor!
