Taylor Perkins

Director of business development

CHASSE Building Team

Background: Perkins is director of CHASSE Building Team’s K-12 Business Development and co-chair of CHASSE’s community giving arm. She serves on the board for the Arizona Association for School Board Officials; Education Foundation for the Buckeye Elementary School District; Nadaburg Unified Elementary School District Foundation; Littleton Education Foundation; Casa Education Foundation; and A4LE.

Key to success: “CHASSE’s steadfast support, combined with a deep-seated commitment to the K-12 community, fuels my ongoing determination to make a meaningful impact in the areas we serve. This drive has led to fruitful collaborations with Urban Farming Education, being vice president of Trade Up Club for the Madison School District and being actively involved with various education foundation and school organization initiatives.”

Source of pride: “Over the past five years alone, we have helped build or re-build dozens of schools across Arizona including Larry C. Kennedy Elementary School, Geneva Epps Mosely Middle School, Madison Park Middle School, Mountainside High School, Canyon View High School, Mountain View High School, Tolleson Union High School, and more. We are quite literally helping build the foundation for Arizona’s future!”

Surprising fact: “I am the proud mother of a 14-year-old daughter! She is a huge reason I do everything I do. I also am a passionate gardener and like to spend most of my free time outside getting my hands dirty and sharing my harvests with friends and family!”
