Interests
When I’m not marketing, I’m usually chasing my next adventure. I love spending summer weekends hiking, backpacking, and exploring mountain trails whenever I can escape the city. Back in New York, I’m a dedicated cocktail enthusiast who enjoys discovering the city’s ever-evolving craft bar scene.
Music is another major part of my life. I’m especially drawn to contemporary classical music, but I love live performances of all kinds. I regularly attend concerts and continue to compose my own work as well. You can explore my music at​ www.jtaylorarnold.com.
