Rachel has been an invaluable resource for our non-profit. For the last three years she has presented workshops on interviewing skills to thousands of students in Mobile County and conducted mock interviews to get them ready for graduation. And this summer she created an Unconscious Bias workshop for our participants. So appreciate her volunteering her time and knowledge to prepare our students for life after high school.

Rachel and I worked together on the Customer Solutions, Programs and Operations team at Tableau. Rachel is an expert at Program Management. She is very driven, meticulous and proactive with her work. I can depend on her to get things done and done well. She is a great collaborator and can move between the details and the big picture. I hope to work with Rachel again in the future.
