Rachel founded Brightwork in 2024 though the phrase that inspired the idea has been a part of her daily vernacular for decades ("I know someone who can do that!").
Rachel spent almost 20 years looking for the perfect position in corporate America only to realize that sometimes you have to be the change you want to see in the world around you! Rachel has working and academic experience in the elementary/special needs classroom, psychology, and finally her MBA backed with more than 10 years of competent sales experience, customer service, and team experiences. Rachel truly is a girl of all trades, specializing in strategy design and implementation, business administration, and sales/marketing.
Though she is able to do all aspects of business management including finance tasks she much prefers the big picture than QuickBooks!
