“How do I define success? For me, it’s unraveling something that’s complicated and messy so that it becomes workable, achievable, and sustainable.”
The specifics of how I work are different with each client, but my process always involves three steps: First, gain insight; second, begin to move forward; finally, deliver results.

I thrive on working with organizations who have the leadership, vision, and capacity to achieve their mission, only to find they are stuck at some point along that journey. I bring my experience and perceptive, analytical mind to sort out, prioritize, and tackle whatever is in your way... then together, we map out where you're going and get it done. Successfully.
I am grateful and proud of the testimonials and praise that I've received from clients and colleagues on a variety of projects for schools, non-profits, and corporations.

“ One thing I liked most working with Rachel was her self-directness and her ability to prioritize our work. I found the experience working with Rachel enjoyable and educational. I would recommend Rachel to any organization that needs help with project management. ”
“ Working with Rachel on high-visibility global projects in 2015 was an absolute joy. Her attention to detail, willingness to hear ideas, weighing the practicality of implementation, organizational skills, and her ability to get the job done are second-to-none. ”
“ Rachel [...] networked 1:1 with teams and stakeholders to create support where needed and got buy-in from stakeholders. Identifying the customer needs and key stakeholders is a key skill that she provides in working with cross functional, complex organizations [with] multiple owners and stakeholders of processes. ”
“ While I was at Autodesk, one project on which Rachel and I worked together was a high-profile global launch of new cloud-based services [with] key customer-facing [impact to] products, multiple web sites, and the back office. If this group could not agree, this critical project could have missed its launch date, with significant impact. The efficient way that Rachel coordinated disparate teams from Marketing, Development, and Support to collaborate, and her very effective leadership in presenting our findings to the Exec staff, resulted in the project staying on track and turned what might have been a tedious and contentious review into a win-win for all concerned. ”
