Bio
Wendy Jacquemet-Ross
I had the pleasure of managing Rachael throughout her time with LifeArc as a Saltire Scholar Business Development Intern. During her time with us, Rachael was extremely professional, diligent and worked hard to achieve the objectives laid out for her. Rachael showed initiative, a desire to learn and was able to navigate her way through a complex organization with ease, which resulted in her producing high quality work that is of real value to LIfeArc as we move forward.

Rachael joined LifeArc for a 10 week summer internship through Saltire Scholars. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and received similar praise from everyone she interacted with. She was diligent, professional and proactive throughout the 10 weeks and delivered a very good piece of work that will be of great use to the team here. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rachael in the future and it would be even better to see her back at LifeArc in the future!
