Taylor Bertolini grew up primarily finding notes filled with love and compassion in her lunchbox. She learned that a few words of encouragement could not only change her life, but the lives of others. That idea followed her to college where she started an organization on the NSU campus called Campus Cursive. When you harness the power of a kind word, you have the power to change lives. Taylor Bertolini is an NSU Junior pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science and a minor in Public Health with a certificate in leadership. Taylor has founded and become the fearless leader of Campus Cursive at NSU. Campus Cursive is an affiliate of More Love Letters, a global organization using the power behind social media to write and mail letters to strangers in need all around the world. She grew up Tamarac, FL raised by her devoted mother, who left love notes in lunch boxes and medicine cabinets, among other places; this is the origin from which Taylor believes her love for personalized notes stems. She strongly believes in the philosophy that all the little things in our lives add up, come together, and become something much bigger than ourselves.
