Career

Taylor-Parkes signed to play with United Soccer League side Bethlehem Steel FC in 2016 on an amateur contract to allow him to still be eligible to play college soccer at the University of Virginia, whom he'd verbally agreed to join after graduating high school.[1]

In August 2018, Taylor-Parkes reportedly signed a deal with Swiss amateur side, Stade-Lausanne-Ouchy in the Swiss Promotion League. However, he was unable to secure a work permit due to non-EU regulations.[2]

On April 7, 2019, Taylor-Parkes scored the Lakeland Tropics' first-ever U.S. Open Cup goal.

He was named to the Canadian U15 national team for the 2013 Copa de México de Naciones.[3]
