Meet The Team

  • Taylor Herman - Founder

    Inspired by his brother, Taylor wanted to establish ways for people within the autism community to develop lifelong skills. Taylor graduated from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University where he explored interests in business and entrepreneurship that have helped to inform him and grow Special Vending since it opened in 2022. When Taylor isn’t working, he enjoys watching sports, and hanging out with family and friends.
