Taylor Livingston arrived at Cal State Fullerton with little knowledge of computer science, but she was eager to learn. At a welcome event, she met mentors and peers and she joined WiCSE, the Women in Computer Science and Engineering program where she found the mentorship, support, and empowerment to thrive. Double majoring in computer science and business administration, Taylor built a unique skill set bridging technology and strategy. From leading diversity summits to mentoring peers, she has transformed from a curious first-year student into a confident, compassionate leader — ready to shape the future of tech and business.
