This early exposure taught her the profound impact stories can have on people, providing escapes, teaching valuable lessons, and fostering connections.
Years later, Rachel's appreciation for the power of storytelling led her to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. With a strong foundation in the art of storytelling, she has excelled in various roles, effortlessly transitioning between in-front-of-the-camera and behind-the-scenes work.
Rachel's versatility has allowed her to expand her skills, and she now works as a filmmaker, taking on responsibilities such as directing and producing. One of her most enjoyable experiences has been working with A Dangerous Flock, a comedy sketch filmmakers' troupe she is a part of.
At the core of Rachel's creative journey lies her passion for authentic storytelling. She believes that true collaboration is the key to successful filmmaking, stating, "My favorite thing about filmmaking is that it requires collaboration. No one can do any of this on their own. It takes a beautiful mesh of minds to make it work."
