Taylor Locke

Taylor Locke joined the WDBJ7 team in June 2024, making the big move from Dallas, Texas. You will see Taylor anchoring and reporting for WDBJ7.

Taylor grew up in Metroplex and graduated from Prosper High School before moving to Lubbock to attend Texas Tech University. That's where she gained her bachelor's degree in Journalism with a minor in Creative Media Industries.

While in her freshman year, she was connected to the university's radio station - KTXT - and her passion for storytelling grew. She always knew she wanted to one day be someone the community could rely on to keep them informed.

Taylor's broadcast journey started more than two years ago at our sister station, KCBD11 in Lubbock, Texas. There, she anchored, reported and produced while being a full-time college student.

When Taylor is not at the station, you can find her walking her dog Blaze, doing yoga, trying a new restaurant in town or going to a football or baseball game. She's excited to get to know the community and explore everything our Hometowns have to offer!
