About Machelle Taylor
Machelle Taylor joined Restoration Ranch as the Program and Outreach Coordinator July 2023.
​
Machelle and her high school sweetheart first came to Restoration Ranch as participants in the VEPP in the Fall of 2020. Finding the community that they had been missing, they became peer volunteers for the VEPP, Caregivers Retreats, and other events at Restoration Ranch.
​
Machelle held many volunteer positions throughout her husband’s 22 yr Active-duty Army career and continues to give back to the veteran community through volunteerism especially to the veteran spouses/partners that often get left behind.
