She lived in a house near campus and helped students who were struggling underneath the immense pressure of surviving BHU. She remained steadfast in this life until she discovered the truth about Hotchkiss Technologies and began a plot to stop the company once and for all. She then faked her own death and has been secretly working against HT to tear the company down. The only person aware of her existence was her brother, Nolan, who was also secretly working alongside her.

Trivia

 * In a September 2017 Dancing With The Stars Instagram Live chat, when asked about what show is about, Sasha Pieterse said, "It's about this perfect town... called Beacon Heights, and, um, there's this really rich family that owns the town basically [...] knows everything about everyone, and, um, their daughter is the first person to get, um... the first person to die basically, as an accident or maybe not an accident in the town, and so everyone kinda freaks out." . She indirectly eludes to Taylor, as the Hotchkiss family is noted to be quite powerful. However, she does state that Marlene "can obviously change it".
 * Initially, Taylor was advertised as "TBA" a mysterious character with a dark past.
 * She is strikingly similar to Alison DiLaurentis in her appearance, which was pointed out by both Alison and Mona.

Book Comparisons

 * Taylor Hotchkiss seems to have been inspired by Taylor Martell-Lewis, who is Caitlin's younger brother who committed suicide prior to the events of the novel due to Nolan's bullying.
