Abby Floyd was born and raised in Searcy, Arkansas and began modeling at an early age which gave her many opportunities to travel around the world. Having been Miss Arkansas Teen USA 2013, Abby made history when she was crowned Miss Arkansas USA 2016 as the first woman in 20 years to hold both titles.

In addition to numerous modeling jobs, she has also appeared on the hit TV show Nashville. Abby has been a fierce competitor in the horse show industry, winning several major shows as well as capturing a world champion title.

After losing both her grandmothers to cancer, and with her Dad being a cancer survivor, Abby was thrilled to be asked to work on several events with the American Association for Cancer Research.

She hopes to spread awareness of cancer while honoring her grandmothers. Abby plans to combine her on-camera experience with her real estate license to host her own Emmy Award-winning show on HGTV someday.

A proud resident of Glenpool, Oklahoma, Taylor was raised under Friday night lights and was voted class personality. Upon graduating from Glenpool High School, she chose to combine the two and study broadcast journalism at Lindenwood University. Her college career opened many doors, including a spot as both a cheerleader and reporter in the NFL. During this time, she also took a six month internship at CBS News in New York City. The collision of these experiences, left Taylor with an increased desire to launch her concept-turned-company, Pink Door Productions last June. Her company sets out to close the female confidence gap by implementing savvy communication techniques and branding tactics.
