One of Taylor Swift's most impressive achievements is her Artist of the Decade win at the 2019 AMAs. This video captures that great moment she won and her inspiring speech. I learned about not only one of her major milestones but also her character and what she's grateful for, which helped me with both my eminence and achievements sections.

I used this IMDB biography in conjunction with the Billboard timeline to learn more about my eminent person's career progression, including some of her achievements in film. It was very well written and contained some details neglected in other articles. Her later career was covered in more depth here than it was in other articles, from about 1989 - Lover era, as she became more active in the film industry and IMDB is a film-focused website.

I used this source to get a general overview of Taylor Swift's career timeline, especially the early events of her life. The information was very detailed and I used this as a starting point to learn more about her very beginnings moving to Nashville, all the way to about Red era. Despite being quite the Swiftie, there were quite a few details I had not yet learned before I read this article. This source, being from Billboard, also highlights her major Billboard-chart-related achievements, meaning I could use this to understand both her career timeline and the scope/frequency of her achievements.
